Life doesn't imitate art, it imitates bad television.

"The king of Rhyme"
The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
-Henry David Thoreau
Life without freedom is like a body without a soul, and freedom without thought is like a confused spirit…
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
-E. M. Forster
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly.
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.
-Sarah Dessen
"The Truth About Forever"
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
