One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning. Any process of inquiry is related to learning. But basically our inquiry should be concerned with finding out what is transient and what is permanent. This is true knowledge.
When I hear somebody sigh, “Life is hard”, I am always tempted to ask, compared to what?
-Sydney J. Harris
You can get all A's and still flunk life.
-Walker Percy
"The Second Coming"
The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
-Deep Trivedi
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
-Søren Kierkegaard
If you wish to understand mind and life, then religion or institutes will not be
able to teach you. For that, you will have to carefully observe all the natural
phenomena and events unfolding around you.
-Deep Trivedi
Don’t hate life and death or love life and death. Keep your every thought free of delusion, and in life you’ll witness the beginning of nirvana, and in death you’ll experience the assurance of no rebirth.
Life is a journey towards the unknown. An empty mind is useful in that journey rather than a mind filled with past.
-J. Krishnamurti
Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.
-Eddie Cantor
Life is anything that dies when you stomp on it.
-David "Dave" Barry
