We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect.

We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don't. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success.

The pleasure of the moment begins to wither almost as soon as it blossoms; our pleasures are soon swallowed up in time's relentless torrent.

Is it progress if a cannibal uses a fork?

Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet.

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

He who is in love with himself has at least this advantage - he won't encounter many rivals.

The future starts today, not tomorrow.

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

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

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.

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

Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.

The joy in life is his who has the heart to demand it.

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

Exceptional claims demand exceptional evidence.

If it is worth doing, it is worth overdoing.

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

Life will not break your heart. It'll crush it.

I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained.
