Quotations
Life
The secret of life is not enjoyment, but education through experience.
- Swami Vivekananda
A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.
- Kurt Vonnegut
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
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.
- Sylvia Plath
Life is but a dream for the dead.

When the sustenance of our life is so dependent on the thousands of inventions
of the scientists and the peace, bliss and happiness is bestowed by the great
artists, then how can we revere them any less than Krishna, Buddha or Christ?
- Deep Trivedi
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is a reality of life that affection is not always reciprocated.
