All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind.

Life does not need to mutilate itself in order to be pure.

Life is too short, or too long, for me to allow myself the luxury of living it so badly.

As you go through life, you've got to see the valleys as well as the peaks.

Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.

Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding... And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy

Diamonds are a girls best friend.

Even truth needs to be clad in new garments if it is to appeal to a new age.

Life's a journey, not a destination.

Wrinkles are engraved smiles.

We think too much and feel too little.

Every life has a measure of sorrow, and sometimes this is what awakens us.

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

A life not lived for others is not a life.

Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, and I'm going to be happy in it.

Humility is really important because it keeps you fresh and new.

Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.

Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?

Live your life as though your every act were to become a universal law.

It is easier to influence strong than weak characters in life.

Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.
