Quotations
Life
It’s better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else's perfectly.
- Elizabeth Gilbert
What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself.
- Mark Twain
It's not that I believe everything happens for a reason. It's just that . . . I just think that some things are meant to be broken, imperfect and chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is.
- Sarah Dessen
You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight.
- Elizabeth Gilbert
The chief danger in life is that you may take too many precautions.
- Alfred Adler
What a unique treasure are the things we have learned to live without, for no thief can take them from us.
- Robert Brault
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
- Bertrand Russell
Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.
- Sylvia Plath
The trouble is if you don’t spend your life yourself, other people will spend it for you.
- Peter Shaffer
You say: “He lost his life” or “my life”, as if life were something that you can possess or lose. The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
- Eckhart Tolle
