Quotations
Life
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
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
- Paulo Coelho
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honourable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
- George Bernard Shaw
Just when I found out the meaning of life, they changed it.
- George Carlin

Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
- Henry Miller
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
Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?

The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware. Joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
- Henry Miller
