Quotations
Life
The closer we come to death, the more important becomes this single indispensable thing called life.
-Leo Tolstoy
Life only begins to be an adventure when we cease living it for ourselves.
-Joel S. Goldsmith

-George Washington Carver
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 to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
-Paulo Coelho
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
-Søren Kierkegaard
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Alchemist"
I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.
-Arthur Rubinstein
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
