Quotations
Life
Life has no meaning, the moment you lose the illusion of being eternal.

"Five Finger Exercise: A Play"
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
-Plato "Plato"
Birth is a moment. Even death is a moment. The chain of moments spent between
the two is called life. In that case, time is indeed precious. We can bring an end
to all our problems as soon as we analyze... as to where and on what issues we
have been wasting our time.
-Deep Trivedi
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"
The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.
-Epicurus
