I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life.
-Paulo Coelho

Quotations
Life
Every chapter in the Book of Life defines our character and tells us who we are
-Anonymous "Anonymous"
Some relationships are like Tom and Jerry. They tease each other, knock down each other, irritate each other, but can’t live without each other.
-Anonymous "Anonymous"
Let life be a deep let-go. See God opening millions of flowers every day without forcing the buds.
-Rabindranath Tagore
"The Gardener"
Life is either a great adventure or nothing.
-Helen Keller
Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.
-Ayn Rand
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"
Human life is influenced by seven elements - the laws of existence, his own
nature, his brain, mind, heart, DNA and his own set of experiences. No eighth
element or reason influences him even a bit.
-Deep Trivedi
Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That’s part of what it means to be alive.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
Why don't you simply understand that events are happening outside and your life
is within you. Then whatever happens outside, why should your life be affected
by it ? It does, because you forcibly perceive yourself being attached to it.
-Deep Trivedi
