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
Quotations
Life
If you wish to understand mind and life, then religion or institutes will not be
able to teach you. For that, you will have to carefully observe all the natural
phenomena and events unfolding around you.
-Deep Trivedi
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
-Anaïs Nin
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Alchemist"
The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
-Henry David Thoreau
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
"The Book of Disquiet"
The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.
-Carl Gustav Jung
This isn't life in the fast lane. It's life in the oncoming traffic.
-Terry Pratchett
Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.
-Bertrand Russell
Life is as dear to the mute creature as it is to a man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not to die, so do other creatures.
-Dalai Lama Xiv "The XIV Dalai Lama"
