Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

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

Some days you're the bug, some days you're the windshield.

A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.

The body is meant to be seen, not all covered up.

Live for yourself and you will live in vain;Live for others, and you will live again.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

There's no advantage to hurrying through life.

Every morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.

The story of life is quicker than the wink of an eye, the story of love is hello and goodbye...until we meet again

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

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

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.

Life is made up of marble and mud.

Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

It was my care to make my life illustrious not by words more than by deeds.

I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.

All good things which exist are the fruits of originality.

What do you want meaning for? Life is desire, not meaning.

On stage, I make love to 25,000 different people, then I go home alone.

To forget is the secret of eternal youth. One grows old only through memory. There's much too little forgetting.
