There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.

-Fernando Pessoa
"The Book of Disquiet"
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
-Deep Trivedi
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
-E. M. Forster
Life has been compared with a battle and rightly so, as each day comes up with a new set of challenges which we must meet. One cannot just shy away from problems if he has to survive. He has to meet to challenges with courage.
It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man’s life is made up of nothing but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.
-Paulo Coelho
"Brida"
The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters.
-Audrey Hepburn
We have lost contact with reality, the simplicity of life.
-Paulo Coelho
Man's real life is happy, chiefly because he is ever expecting that it soon will be so.
-Edgar Allan Poe
Not being dead isn't being alive.
-E. E. Cummings
