One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning. Any process of inquiry is related to learning. But basically our inquiry should be concerned with finding out what is transient and what is permanent. This is true knowledge.
It is a reality of life that affection is not always reciprocated.
-Alison Gardner
Life's as kind as you let it be.
-Charles Bukowski
"Hot Water Music"
What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.
I created you human beings because I desired to see you lead a joyous life.
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
-Deep Trivedi
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
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"
In life, as in chess, forethought wins.
-Charles Buxton
