It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and well and justly. And it is impossible to live wisely and well and justly without living a pleasant life.

Quotations
Life
Life is such a business, where for every gain you have to lose something.
'Losing less - Gaining more' is what defines success in business here.
'Big loss - Small gain' is a loss making deal in life... At the same time, depriving
yourself of the gain, out of fear of loss is utter stupidity.
-Deep Trivedi
It is not that you read a book, pass an examination and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters.
-Audrey Hepburn
When we see everything in life as a game, we will be equally joyous when falling as we are when rising. If we can fully understand this – if we can see life as swinging on a swing – we will never fall apart when failure comes our way.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
How can living life to the fullest with much passion, fun and happiness or moving
towards success, ever be irreligious? Irreligiousness itself begins with renouncing
the things out of fear.
-Deep Trivedi
Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.
-Søren Kierkegaard
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
-Bertrand Russell
All your efforts at the end are nothing, but inviting pains and pleasures in life,
whereas to be steadfast in your 'being' no effort is required. The best part is,
there is only joy and happiness, not just for one but for hundreds of reasons.
-Deep Trivedi
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
