"Me: Stories of My 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"
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.
What a wee little part of a person's life are his acts and his words! His real life is led in his head, and is known to none but himself.
-Mark Twain
The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them up.
-Ambrose Bierce
No one who does good deeds will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come. When such people die, they go to other realms where the righteous live.
This isn't life in the fast lane. It's life in the oncoming traffic.
-Terry Pratchett
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
In life, as in chess, forethought wins.
-Charles Buxton
There is no cure for birth and death, save to enjoy the interval.
-George Santayana
