Quotations
Life
He died that day because his body had served its purpose. His soul had done what it came to do, learned what it came to learn, and then was free to leave.
-Garth Stein
"The Art of Racing in the Rain"
But how could you live and have no story to tell?
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky

Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat and man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man’s own advantage.
-Sri Aurobindo "Sri Aurobindo"
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"
If there's a thing I've learned in my life, it's to not be afraid of the responsibility that comes with caring for other people. What we do for love: those things endure. Even if the people you do them for, don't.
-Cassandra Clare
When you feel life at crossroads, you need a higher perspective view.
-Toba Beta "My Ancestor was an Ancient Astronaut"
We never live; we are always in the expectation of living.
-Voltaire
Achieving life is not the equivalent of avoiding death.
-Ayn Rand
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, Wow! What a Ride!
-Hunter S. Thompson
