When life gives you lemons, chunk it right back.

Quotations
Life
What do you want a meaning for? Life is a desire, not a meaning.
-Charlie Chaplin
If you wish to make your life meaningful; every morning spend ten minutes in
solitude and think about making today a fruitful day, and before going to bed
at night, rewind the day for five minutes and think whether or not the day was
wasted. And then, see what you will soon transform into.
-Deep Trivedi
In order to lead a successful human life you should have in your nature...a heart
of an artist, vision of a scientist, an astute business acumen, pride of self reliance,
the art of being joyous, a zest for life and lastly, a self-content nature; you should
essentially have a fair mix of all the above mentioned seven qualities.
-Deep Trivedi
You have crossed the great ocean; why do you halt so near the shore? Make haste to get on the other side, Gautama; be careful all the while!
-Scriptures "Uttaradhyayana Sutra 10.34"
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"
To be absolutely independent in each and every field of life, is your first and
foremost duty. If you are burdensome to anyone, for anything...then your life is
a complete waste.
-Deep Trivedi
It is a good practice to set apart at least one day in a year for the remembrance of one’s near and dear relatives, friends and learned people that are no more in keeping with our traditions; giving a new orientation to and infusing new life into practices that have become lifeless and meaningless to many.
-Scriptures "The Concise Encyclopaedia of Hinduism"
I created you human beings because I desired to see you lead a joyous life.
-Scriptures "Ofudesaki 14.25"
What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself.
-Mark Twain
