Life itself, too, is forever turning an infinitely vacant, dispiriting blank side towards man on which nothing appears, any more than it does on a blank canvas.

My mistakes are my life.
Life don't owe you nothing.
We've been told there's a certain way to live ... that this is living ... and we ... we never really questioned it. We just sort of went along. But what if it's not the best way? What if there's another way that's better? What if there's something more?!

All our life passes in this way: we seek rest by struggling against certain obstacles, and once they are overcome, rest proves intolerable because of the boredom it produces.
How small a porton of our life it is that we really enjoy.

In the chequered area of human experience the seasons are all mingled as in the golden age: fruit and blossom hang together; in the same moment the sickle is reaping and the seed is sprinkled; one tends the green cluster and another treads the wine-press.

- We have no time to stand and stare?
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life — It goes on.
So it is with all life. A tedium that includes the expectation of nothing but more tedium; a regret, right now, for the regret I'll have tomorrow for having felt regret today.
Life is one long process of getting tired.
The secret of the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment of existence is: to live dangerously!
Life is made up of marble and mud.
Life is hard. After all, it kills you!
You should live everyday like it's your birthday.
Life is what you celebrate. All of it. Even its end.
There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive.

- A naked runner lost in a storm of spears.
You're alive. That means you have infinite potential. You can do anything, make anything, dream anything. If you change the world, the world will change.

Do not take life too seriously--you will never get out of it alive.
Tact is not a small thing; in the battle of life it is more powerful than a bludgeon.
- Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
- When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
- And life has a funny way of helping you out when
- You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
- In your face
A life is black, whiten it as you will.

The great river-courses which have shaped the lives of men have hardly changed; and those other streams, the life-currents that ebb and flow in human hearts, pulsate to the same great needs, the same great loves and terrors.

Life is a garden forever in flower.
Our lives are waves that come up out of the ocean of eternity, break upon the beach of earth, and lapse back to the ocean of eternity. Some are sunlit, some run in storm and rain; one is a quiet ripple, another is a thunderous breaker; and once in many centuries comes a great tidal wave that sweeps over a continent; but all go back to the sea and lie equally level there.
Life is a riddle we die in guessing.

Whatever may be our condition in life, it is better to lay hold of its advantages than to count its evils.

- A fragile dew-drop on its perilous way
- From a tree’s summit.

- And if sometimes, commingled with life's wine,
- We find the wormwood, and rebel and shrink,
- Be sure a wiser hand than yours or mine
- Pours out this potion for our lips to drink.
- Some there are find joy in life,
