When we see everything in life as a game, we will be equally joyous when falling as we are when rising. If we can fully understand this – if we can see life as swinging on a swing – we will never fall apart when failure comes our way.
Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?
-Bob Marley
Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music.

-Frank Zappa
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
-Bertrand Russell
In order to lead a successful human life you should have in your nature...a heart
of an artist, vision of a scientist, an astute business acumen, pride of self reliance,
the art of being joyous, a zest for life and lastly, a self-content nature; you should
essentially have a fair mix of all the above mentioned seven qualities.
-Deep Trivedi
Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life.

"Tuck Everlasting"
You live but once; you might as well be amusing.
-Coco Chanel
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
It's not that I believe everything happens for a reason. It's just that . . . I just think that some things are meant to be broken, imperfect and chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is.
