Quotations
Life
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
"The Book of Disquiet"
Goodness and holistic way of living go together.
-J. Krishnamurti
There are two ways of passing from this world – one in light, and one in darkness. When one passes in light he does not come back but when one passes in darkness he returns.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 8.26"
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality, namely that good consists in maintaining, assisting, and enhancing life, and that to destroy, to harm, or to hinder life is evil.
-Albert Schweitzer "Albert Schweitzer"
Birth is a moment. Even death is a moment. The chain of moments spent between
the two is called life. In that case, time is indeed precious. We can bring an end
to all our problems as soon as we analyze... as to where and on what issues we
have been wasting our time.
-Deep Trivedi
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"
Life itself is simple...it's just not easy.
-Steve Maraboli
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
-Bertrand Russell
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
-Abraham Lincoln
