Quotations
Life
Sing your life; any fool can think of words that rhyme.
-Morrissey
In life, whatever you achieve by putting in efforts will never give you happiness,
as the pain starts right from the time of making an effort. On the other hand, the
tasks that you enjoy doing, persist for long spells; then whatever you gain out of
it, the end result will always be both positive and effective for your life.
-Deep Trivedi
For breath is life, and if you breathe well you will live long on earth.
-Proverbs "Sanskrit Proverb"
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
-Søren Kierkegaard
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
-Winston S. Churchill
Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live.
-Jean Cocteau
Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
-Hilary Cooper
If you care about something you have to protect it – If you’re lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you have to find the courage to live it.
-John Irving
"A Prayer for Owen Meany"
A successful life is the one which has no desires left in the mind at the time of
death.
-Deep Trivedi
