This new life is endless, and even after my physical death it will be kept alive by those who live the life of complete renunciation of falsehood, lies, hatred, anger, greed and lust and who, to accomplish all this, do no lustful actions, do no harm to anyone.
One doesn’t recognize the really important moments in one’s life until it’s too late.
-Agatha Christie
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"
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"
The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters.
-Audrey Hepburn
Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
-Søren Kierkegaard
Let life be a deep let-go. See God opening millions of flowers every day without forcing the buds.
-Rabindranath Tagore
"The Gardener"
That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.
-Emily Dickinson
It's not that I believe everything happens for a reason. It's just that . . . I just think that some things are meant to be broken, imperfect and chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is.
-Sarah Dessen
"The Truth About Forever"
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
-Deep Trivedi
