I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

My life didn't please me, so I created my life.

The 'good old times'-all times, when old, are good.

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.

You can give in to the failure messages and be a bitter deadbeat of excuses. Or you can choose to be happy and positive and excited about life.

To be able to look back upon ones life in satisfaction, is to live twice.

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

Let silence take you to the core of life.

We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.

Everything passes. Nobody gets anything for keeps. And that's how we've got to live.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Your belief in God is merely an escape from your monotonous, stupid and cruel life.

Everything existing in the universe is the fruit of chance and necessity.

Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that, the quicker we will be able to treat life as art.

As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.

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

Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.
