Don’t hate life and death or love life and death. Keep your every thought free of delusion, and in life you’ll witness the beginning of nirvana, and in death you’ll experience the assurance of no rebirth.

Life
-Bodhidharma "Bodhidharma"
The refined form of "human" body, mind, culture and consciousness that we
witness today is the result of countless unsuccessful efforts spanning over millions
of years. We cannot afford to waste such a precious life only on education,
marriage, children, chasing wealth and pangs of old age.
-Deep Trivedi
Just when I found out the meaning of life, they changed it.
-George Carlin
What we call life is only talk of nature.
-Dejan Stojanović
"The Sun Watches the Sun"
There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

‘New’ is a beautiful word which opens up many possibilities. If every day can be viewed as ‘New’ then, life blossoms - like new leaves, buds, flowers and fruit - full of colour, fragrance, taste and rasa: the very essence of living.
-Sonal Mansingh "Sonal Mansingh"
However mean your life is, meet it and live it.
-Henry David Thoreau
There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it.
-Gustave Flaubert
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"
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
