The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.

A worthy woman personifies the truly noble and worthwhile attributes of life.

Even more amazing than modern technology is our opportunity to access information directly from Heaven, without hardware, software, or monthly service fees.

One who does not know when to die, does not know how to live.

Why love if losing hurts so much? I have no answers anymore; only the life I have lived. The pain now is part of the happiness then.

Man weeps to think that he will die so soon; woman, that she was born so long ago.

My life is real.

To me, comedy is just twisting reality. It’s commenting or observing or twisting life.

A useless life is an early death.

There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet.

Death is a fearful thing.

I’m not trying to follow a set of rules and stuff. I’m just living my life.

He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.

There will always be something to ruin our lives, it all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

My life is my message.

We might as well die as to go on living like this.

The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.

I’m 31 now. I think I’m beginning to understand what life is, what romance is, and what a relationship means.

Mysterious love, uncertain treasure, hast thou more of pain or pleasure! Endless torments dwell about thee: Yet who would live, and live without thee!

Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.

Life is either a great adventure or nothing.

There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to be true to the best one knows.

For me life is continuously being hungry. The meaning of life is not simply to exist, to survive, but to move ahead, to go up, to achieve, to conquer.

Things in themselves have no life in them. A car can’t comfort or encourage you. A house means nothing if there’s no life and love inside.

Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.

There’s no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were.

Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.

Growing old has been the greatest surprise of my life.

My work is about my life, and what I want to do with it.

Just as courage imperils life, fear protects it.

Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.

Today, more than ever before, life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.

Life began with waking up and loving my mother’s face.

The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.

Religion was instituted to make us happy in this life and in the other. What must we do to be happy in the life to come? Be just.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.

The momentous thing in human life is the art of winning the soul to good or evil.

We spend our lives, all of us, waiting for the great day, the great battle, or the deed of power. But that external consummation is not given to many: nor is it necessary. So long as our being is tensed, directed with passion, towards that which is the spirit of all things, then that spirit will emerge from our own hidden, nameless effort.

I live in a crazy time.

We ought to fly away from earth to heaven as quickly as we can; and to fly away is to become like God, as far as this is possible; and to become like him is to become holy, just, and wise.

The Bible says that as Christians we don’t grieve the same way people do who have no hope of eternity and of Heaven – but we still grieve.

This life, which had been the tomb of his virtue and of his honour, is but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Nothing in life is promised except death.

When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained.

As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.

Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.

Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to preserve it. Has it ever been said that a man who throws himself out the window to escape from a fire is guilty of suicide?

Life is a difficult game. You can win it only by retaining your birthright to be a person.

Life is an unanswered question, but let’s still believe in the dignity and importance of the question.

Life is short, the art long.

Football (soccer) is a matter of life and death, except more important.

My whole life is a theater piece.

Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.

Free will carried many a soul to hell, but never a soul to heaven.

Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

The perplexity of life arises from there being too many interesting things in it for us to be interested properly in any of them.

Among the many values in life, I appreciate freedom most.

And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.

Confront a corpse at least once. The absolute absence of life is the most disturbing and challenging confrontation you will ever have.
