When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.
-John Lennon
Quotations
Life
A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth. The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water. Even so, life is but an endless series of little details, actions, speeches and thoughts. And the consequences, whether good or bad of even the least of them, are far-reaching.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
Life is but a dream for the dead.
-Gerard Way
It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man’s life is made up of nothing but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
-George Bernard Shaw
Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
-Elbert Hubbard
They say the seeds of what we will do are in all of us, but it always seemed to me that in those who make jokes in life the seeds are covered with better soil and with a higher grade of manure.
-Ernest Hemingway
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
‘New’ is a beautiful word which opens up many possibilities. If every day can be viewed as ‘New’ then, life blossoms - like new leaves, buds, flowers and fruit - full of colour, fragrance, taste and rasa: the very essence of living.
-Sonal Mansingh "Sonal Mansingh"
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future.
-Earl Nightingale "Earl Nightingale"
