Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race.

I can't help thinking that there are only one or two ways of being brought into this world, but there are so many fucked-up ways of leaving it.

I have always regarded myself as the pillar of my life.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.

The image is one thing and the human being is another...It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.

It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone.

It's only terrible to have nothing to wait for.

Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.

Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion.

I think the highest and lowest points are the important ones. Anything else is just...in between.

The first forty years of life give us the text; the next thirty supply the commentary on it.

Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties

The rich will do anything for the poor but get off their backs.

To live is to choose. But to choose well, you must know who you are and what you stand for, where you want to go and why you want to get there.

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it.

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough

Speed and efficiency do not always increase the quality of life.

When all life is seen as divine, everyone grows wings.

Life is a difficult game. You can win it only by retaining your birthright to be a person.

Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
