Quotations
Life
You ask: What is the meaning or purpose of life? I can only answer with another question: Do you think we are wise enough to read God's mind?
-Freeman Dyson
"The Meaning of Life"
Your daily life is your temple and your religion.
-Khalil Gibran
Life is busy. There are daily obligations that have to be met. Take time to think about how precious and special human life is - you only get one such life. Every wasted minute is lost. You can’t get it back.
-Rush Limbaugh "Rush Limbaugh"
Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly.

There are two ways of passing from this world – one in light, and one in darkness. When one passes in light he does not come back but when one passes in darkness he returns.

Life itself is simple...it's just not easy.
-Steve Maraboli
I'm not saying it's going to be easy. Nothing in life is easy. But that's no reason to give up. You'll be surprised what you can accomplish if you set your mind to it. After all, you only have one life, so you should try to make the most of it.
-Louis Sachar
"Holes"
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"
My life didn't please me, so I created my life.
-Coco Chanel
