Quotations
Life
Everything has been figured out, except how to live.
-Jean Paul Sartre
I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
-Paulo Coelho
"The Alchemist"
Life is like a beautiful melody, only the lyrics are messed up.
-Hans Christian Anderson
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
-Søren Kierkegaard
Death is extraordinarily like life when we know how to live.
-J. Krishnamurti
I love life because what more is there.
-Anthony Hopkins
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.
-Bodhidharma "Bodhidharma"
Without an ever-present sense of death, life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.
-Muriel Spark "Muriel Spark"
You can get all A's and still flunk life.
-Walker Percy
