Quotations
Life
Life is a festival only to the wise.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
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

Your life begins to change the day you take responsibility for it.
-Steve Maraboli
Some chapters in the Book of Life tell of tragedy, others of triumph. Some chapters are dull and others are exciting. The key to being a success in life is to never stop on a difficult page, to never quit a tough chapter. Champions have the courage to keep turning the pages because they know a better chapter lies ahead.

Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.
-Tennessee Williams
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
-Bertrand Russell
