Quotations
Life
There is neither creation nor destruction, neither destiny nor free will, neither path nor achievement; this is the final truth.
-Ramana Maharshi
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 "Eckhart Tolle"
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa

-Swami Dhyan Giten "Swami Dhyan Giten"
My life didn't please me, so I created my life.

"The Princess Bride"
The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.
-Bob Moawad
Where there is love there is life.
-Mahatma Gandhi
