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.
The secret of life is not enjoyment, but education through experience.
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
-Anaïs Nin
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.
When life is viewed as good, a bad day is easily absorbed.
-Neil Maxwell
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
-Oprah Winfrey
That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.
-Emily Dickinson
Learning is retained through putting into practice; family prestige is maintained through good behavior; a respectable person is recognised by his excellent qualities; and anger is seen in the eyes.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
-Benjamin Franklin
No one who does good deeds will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come. When such people die, they go to other realms where the righteous live.
