Quotations
Life

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

Some chapters in the Book of Life tell of tragedy, others of triumph. Some chapters are dull and others are exciting. The key to being a success in life is to never stop on a difficult page, to never quit a tough chapter. Champions have the courage to keep turning the pages because they know a better chapter lies ahead.

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.
- Oscar Wilde

If you wish to understand mind and life, then religion or institutes will not be
able to teach you. For that, you will have to carefully observe all the natural
phenomena and events unfolding around you.
- Deep Trivedi

The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them up.
- Ambrose Bierce

Life is life – Whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man’s own advantage.
- Sri Aurobindo

You can get all A's and still flunk life.
- Walker Percy

In life, whatever you achieve by putting in efforts will never give you happiness,
as the pain starts right from the time of making an effort. On the other hand, the
tasks that you enjoy doing, persist for long spells; then whatever you gain out of
it, the end result will always be both positive and effective for your life.
- Deep Trivedi

The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
- Deep Trivedi

The refined form of "human" body, mind, culture and consciousness that we
witness today is the result of countless unsuccessful efforts spanning over millions
of years. We cannot afford to waste such a precious life only on education,
marriage, children, chasing wealth and pangs of old age.
- Deep Trivedi
