Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.

—Benjamin Franklin
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

—George Bernard Shaw
Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.

—Henry Miller
Life is not separate from death. It only looks that way.

—American Indian Proverb
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Silence is the virtue of fools.

—Francis Bacon
Within every difficulty lies opportunity.

—Albert Einstein
And in the end it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, to discover that I had not lived.

—Henry David Thoreau
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind....Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth...I long to alleviate this evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

—Bertrand Russell
Death solves all problems. No person, no problem.

—Josef Stalin
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect.

—Mark Twain
Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.

—James Dean
If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.

—I Timothy 6:3
Dance like nobody's watching; love like you've never been hurt. Sing like nobody's listening; live like it's heaven on earth.

—Mark Twain
I have no country to fight for: my country is the earth, and I am a citizen of the world.

—Eugene V. Debs
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass.
