The future starts today, not tomorrow.

My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.

I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.

I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday.

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

Hard work, disciplined habits, modesty in living, contentment and cheerfulness.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

If you've been playing poker for half an hour and you still don't know who the patsy is, you're the patsy.

Eventually all things fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moments, and know everything happens for a reason.

I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery than live in a world so small that my mind could comprehend it.

The future is the shape of things to come.

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

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

I'm never going to be disabled. I'm sick of being so healthy.

Some people are desperately looking for scapegoats, they just don't want to see the truth!

Not all things are to be discovered; many are better concealed.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.

When someone leaves, it's because someone else is about to arrive.

A tragedy means always a man's struggle with that which is stronger than man.

Always say 'yes' to the present moment... Surrender to what is. Say 'yes' to life - and see how life starts suddenly to start working for you rather than against you.

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
