-Søren Kierkegaard
Quotations
Life
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
My life didn't please me, so I created my life.
-Coco Chanel
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Nobody wants to be here and nobody wants to leave.
-Cormac McCarthy
"The Road"
If you wish to make your life meaningful; every morning spend ten minutes in
solitude and think about making today a fruitful day, and before going to bed
at night, rewind the day for five minutes and think whether or not the day was
wasted. And then, see what you will soon transform into.
-Deep Trivedi
The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.
-Carl Gustav Jung
They say the seeds of what we will do are in all of us, but it always seemed to me that in those who make jokes in life the seeds are covered with better soil and with a higher grade of manure.
-Ernest Hemingway
That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.
-Emily Dickinson
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
