Life is thickly sown with thorns and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes the greater is their power to harm us.

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man nor ask another man to live for mine.

I am sorry to say that there is too much point to the wisecrack that life is extinct on other planets because their scientists were more advanced than ours.

In poverty and other misfortunes of life true friends are a sure refuge. The young they keep out of mischief to the old they are a comfort and aid in their weakness and those in the prime of life they incite to noble deeds.

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

Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.

I guess I have always been deeply terrified to really be someone's wife since I know from life one cannot love another ever really.

Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.

I don't believe in guilt I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free.

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you and you'll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life and you'll find that you have more of it.

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants and the other is getting it.

You can have everything in life you want if you will just help other people get what they want.

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.

Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.

I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.

If you can dream it then you can achieve it. You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want.

Life's most persistent and urgent question is 'What are you doing for others?'

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them at least don't hurt them.

Life has meaning only if one barters it day by day for something other than itself.

A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.

Life becomes harder for us when we live for others but it also becomes richer and happier.

The shoe that fits one person pinches another there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.
