We love life, not because we are used to living but because we are used to loving.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Life without freedom is like a body without a soul, and freedom without thought is like a confused spirit…
If you can always smile at life, life will always smile at you.

To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Some chapters in the Book of Life tell of tragedy, others of triumph. Some chapters are dull and others are exciting.

Champions have the courage to keep turning the pages because they know a better chapter lies ahead.

Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
-Marcus Aurelius
We never live; we are always in the expectation of living.
-Voltaire
