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
Reverence for life affords me my fundamental principle of morality, namely that good consists in maintaining, assisting, and enhancing life, and that to destroy, to harm, or to hinder life is evil.
-Albert Schweitzer "Albert Schweitzer"
Life without freedom is like a body without a soul, and freedom without thought is like a confused spirit.
-Khalil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
If there is any planning worth undertaking in human life it is, when one breathes
his last neither should he have any guilt nor dissatisfaction... Despite doing
everything desired, still if he has any kind of remorse or discontent while bidding
goodbye to this world...then what did he do all his life?
-Deep Trivedi
The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
-Deep Trivedi
I was wasting my life, always thinking about myself.
-Morrissey
Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
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"
Every chapter in the Book of Life defines our character and tells us who we are
-Anonymous "Anonymous"
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
-Deep Trivedi
