The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Life
But how could you live and have no story to tell?
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
"White Nights"
Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life.
-Samuel Dickey Gordon "S. D. Gordon"

"Flaubert's Parrot"
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.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and well and justly. And it is impossible to live wisely and well and justly without living a pleasant life.
-Epicurus
Your daily life is your temple and your religion.
-Khalil Gibran
Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly.
-Paulo Coelho
We love life, not because we are used to living but because we are used to loving.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
The difference between school and life? In school, you’re taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches you a lesson.
