Quotations
Life
Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That’s part of what it means to be alive.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
Those who see all creatures within themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no fear. Those who see all creatures in themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no grief. How can the multiplicity of life, delude the one who sees its unity?
-Isha Upanishad "Isha Upanishad 6-7"
We can't plan life. All we can do is be available for it.
-Lauryn Hill
Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.
-Dalai Lama
There are two things to aim at in life: first to get what you want; and after that to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second.
-Logan P. Smith
There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life.
-Kurt Cobain
Learning is retained through putting into practice; family prestige is maintained through good behavior; a respectable person is recognised by his excellent qualities; and anger is seen in the eyes.
-Chanakya "Chanakya"
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
-Søren Kierkegaard
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
