-
Here is a test to find out whether your mission in life is complete. If you're alive, it isn't.
~ Richard Bach quotes from Jonathon Livingston Seagull
-
It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.
-
I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is that I can't find anybody who can tell me what they want.
-
A man's life is interesting primarily when he had failed for it's a sign that he tried to surpass himself.
-
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements in life, when all we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
-
If you look at your life one way, there is always cause for alarm.

Men are born soft and supple; dead, they are stiff and hard. Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry. Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.
~ Lao-tzu quotes from Tao Te Ching
-
We pay a heavy price for our fear of failure. It is a powerful obstacle to growth. It assures the progressive narrowing of the personality and prevents exploration and experimentation. There is no learning without some difficulty and fumbling. If you want to keep on learning, you must keep on risking failure - all your life.
-
Life is really simple, but men insist on making it complicated.
-
Tzu-kung asked, 'Is there a single word which can be a guide to conduct throughout one's life?' The Master said, 'It is perhaps the word 'shu.' Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.
~ Confucius quotes from The Analects
-
You do not understand even life. How can you understand death?
~ Confucius quotes from The Analects
-
If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is a law, and no amount of pretending will alter that reality.
-
It may be true that the unexamined life is not worth living—but neither is the unlived life worth examining.
