Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, Wow! What a Ride!
-Hunter S. Thompson
Quotations
Life
Don’t hate life and death or love life and death. Keep your every thought free of delusion, and in life you’ll witness the beginning of nirvana, and in death you’ll experience the assurance of no rebirth.
-Bodhidharma "Bodhidharma"
You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight.
-Elizabeth Gilbert
Life should be full of colours! And each colour is meant to be seen and enjoyed separately, for if seen all mixed together, they will appear all black. Similarly, in life, different roles played by the same person should exist peacefully and distinctly inside him. Lift your spirit with the joy of colour.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "Sri Sri Ravi Shankar"
Why don't you simply understand that events are happening outside and your life
is within you. Then whatever happens outside, why should your life be affected
by it ? It does, because you forcibly perceive yourself being attached to it.
-Deep Trivedi
All the conclusions derived by science with reference to human body will only be
based on 'Ifs and Buts', because the uncertainty of life is the ''play of nature''.
-Deep Trivedi
Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
-Henry Miller
Not being dead isn't being alive.
-E. E. Cummings
The language of excitement is at best picturesque merely. You must be calm before you can utter oracles.
-Henry David Thoreau
However mean your life is, meet it and live it.
-Henry David Thoreau
