A life not lived for others is not a life.

Enjoy when you can, and endure when you must.

Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.

We can allow satellites, planets, suns, universe, nay whole systems of universes, to be governed by laws, but the smallest insect, we wish to be created at once by special act.

Don't cry for a man who's left you - the next one may fall for your smile.

We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.

The future is the shape of things to come.

No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.

A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.

Life's pretty good, and why wouldn't it be? I'm a pirate, after all.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

Let silence take you to the core of life.

If you have zest and enthusiasm, you attract zest and enthusiasm. Life does give back in kind.

Time ripens all things; no one is born wise.

All that happens means something; nothing you do is ever insignificant.

Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?

In the survival of favoured individuals and races, during the constantly-recurring struggle for existence, we see a powerful and ever-acting form of selection.

Life is more or less a lie, but then again, that's exactly the way we want it to be.

Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.

If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane.

Death is not the opposite of life, but a part of it.
