Quotations
Life
Life is pain, highness. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.
-William Goldman
"The Princess Bride"
A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth. The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water. Even so, life is but an endless series of little details, actions, speeches and thoughts. And the consequences, whether good or bad of even the least of them, are far-reaching.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
Life should be full of colours! And each colour is meant to be seen and enjoyed separately, for if seen all mixed together, they will appear all black. Similarly, in life, different roles played by the same person should exist peacefully and distinctly inside him. Lift your spirit with the joy of colour.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "Sri Sri Ravi Shankar"
Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life.
-Natalie Babbitt
"Tuck Everlasting"
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"
What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.
-Nelson Mandela "Nelson Mandela"
My philosophy of life is that if we make up our mind what we are going to make of our lives, then work hard toward that goal, we never lose - somehow we win out.
-Ronald Reagan
Life has become immeasurably better since I have stopped taking it seriously.
-Hunter S. Thompson
Die while you’re alive and be absolutely dead. Then do whatever you want: it’s all good.
