I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life.
-Paulo Coelho
"Eleven Minutes"
Quotations
Life
Life, unfortunately, doesn't seem to care what we want.
-Richelle Mead
"Last Sacrifice"
You say: “He lost his life” or “my life”, as if life were something that you can possess or lose. The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
If you really wish to strengthen your individuality and accomplish something
great in life, then recognize the presence of "witness". Only because it is there,
you can feel that you are working.
-Deep Trivedi
The closer we come to death, the more important becomes this single indispensable thing called life.
-Leo Tolstoy
Life is as dear to the mute creature as it is to a man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not to die, so do other creatures.
-Dalai Lama Xiv "The XIV Dalai Lama"
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
-Abraham Lincoln
The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.
-Carl Gustav Jung
Believing life to be of 60 years, we live our entire life considering it to be "One"
unit. This is the reason, why memories of the past and fear of the future keep
haunting us. Whereas in reality, life is the culmination of billions of moments put
together. Hence, each moment - a new moment. And when each moment is a
new moment... then which past and whose future?
-Deep Trivedi
Life isn't as serious as the mind makes it out to be.
-Eckhart Tolle
