Quotations
Life
Books say: She did this because. Life says: She did this. Books are where things are explained to you; life is where things aren't. I'm not surprised some people prefer books.
-Julian Barnes
"Flaubert's Parrot"
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
-Deep Trivedi
The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware. Joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
-Henry Miller
The human life is not meant for compromises, but to explore and tread the path
of life on the basis of your skills and talents.
-Deep Trivedi
The darkest night is often the bridge to the brightest tomorrow. Celebrate endings, for they precede new beginnings.
-Jonathan. L. Huie "Jonathan. L. Huie"
What most counts is not to live, but to live right.
-Socrates
Travel light on your journey in life. Your desires and expectations are heavy baggage which slow you down and thwart your progress. Let them go.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Chidanand Saraswati"
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
-Eddie Cantor
Death is extraordinarily like life when we know how to live.
-J. Krishnamurti
