Quotations
Life
You ask: What is the meaning or purpose of life? I can only answer with another question: Do you think we are wise enough to read God's mind?
-Freeman Dyson
"The Meaning of Life"
To be able to look back upon ones life in satisfaction is to live twice.
-Khalil Gibran
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
-Deep Trivedi
In life, as in chess, forethought wins.
-Charles Buxton
Is life not a thousand times too short for us to bore ourselves?
-Friedrich Nietzsche
In order to lead a successful human life you should have in your nature...a heart
of an artist, vision of a scientist, an astute business acumen, pride of self reliance,
the art of being joyous, a zest for life and lastly, a self-content nature; you should
essentially have a fair mix of all the above mentioned seven qualities.
-Deep Trivedi
The language of excitement is at best picturesque merely. You must be calm before you can utter oracles.
-Henry David Thoreau
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
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
