Quotations
Life
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
You ask: What is the meaning or purpose of life? I can only answer with another question: Do you think we are wise enough to read God's mind?
- Freeman Dyson
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
- Deep Trivedi
Life is our teacher. Life communicates with us all the time and it is a lesson to see how life continuously has led me to the people I need to meet, to the situations I need to experience, and to the places I need to be.
- Swami Dhyan Giten
Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live.

- Sarah Dessen
Rise to the occasion which is life!
- Virginia Euwer Wolff
Life is as dear to the mute creature as it is to a man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not to die, so do other creatures.
- Dalai Lama Xiv
Life is hard. After all, it kills you.
- Katharine Hepburn
