Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them

What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

Any place I hang my head is home.

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

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.

When making your choice in life, do not neglect to live.

We think too much and feel too little.

Anything I've done up till 27 May 1999 was kind of an illusion, existing without living. My daughter, the birth of my daughter, gave me life.

Being a hero is about the shortest-lived profession on earth.

There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.

It is not the length of life, but the depth.

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

Exceptional claims demand exceptional evidence.

Take a chance! All life is a chance. The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare.

People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn't stop you from having your own opinion

Old age, especially an honoured old age, has so great authority, that this is of more value than all the pleasures of youth.

A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.

You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven.

By putting forward the hands of the clock you shall not advance the hour.

No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.

Imagination does not become great until human beings, given the courage and the strength, use it to create.
