It’s better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else's perfectly.

Quotations
Life
It is not that you read a book, pass an examination and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
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.

What a unique treasure are the things we have learned to live without, for no thief can take them from us.
-Robert Brault
There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.
-George Bernard Shaw
Believing life to be of 60 years, we live our entire life considering it to be "One"
unit. This is the reason, why memories of the past and fear of the future keep
haunting us. Whereas in reality, life is the culmination of billions of moments put
together. Hence, each moment - a new moment. And when each moment is a
new moment... then which past and whose future?
-Deep Trivedi
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
-Plato "Plato"
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.
-John Lennon
There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life.
-Kurt Cobain
When we see everything in life as a game, we will be equally joyous when falling as we are when rising. If we can fully understand this – if we can see life as swinging on a swing – we will never fall apart when failure comes our way.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
