Quotations
Life
Life, unfortunately, doesn't seem to care what we want.
-Richelle Mead
"Last Sacrifice"
There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it.
-Gustave Flaubert
Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live.
-Jean Cocteau
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Alchemist"
Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
-Robert Brault
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"
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"
Who says life is fair, where is that written?
-William Goldman
"The Princess Bride"
If you care about something you have to protect it – If you’re lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you have to find the courage to live it.
-John Irving
"A Prayer for Owen Meany"
