The most exhausting thing in life is being insincere.
Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meanderings, but leads none of us by the same route.
Abasement, degradation is simply the manner of life of the man who has refused to be what it is his duty to be.
I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I'm not afraid to look behind them.
Without discipline, there's no life at all.
The most difficult thing in life is to know yourself.
Sometimes it takes years to really grasp what has happened to your life.
There is not one big cosmic meaning for all, there is only the meaning we each give to our life, an individual meaning, an individual plot, like an individual novel, a book for each person.
I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.
Reduce the complexity of life by eliminating the needless wants of life, and the labors of life reduce themselves.
Life is not complex. We are complex. Life is simple, and the simple thing is the right thing.
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
How can they say my life is not a success? Have I not for more than sixty years got enough to eat and escaped being eaten?
There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.
Success has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It's what you do for others.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.
The deepest definition of youth is life as yet untouched by tragedy.
sometimes you don't need a goal in life, you don't need to know the big picture. you just need to know what you're going to do next!
If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does.
When I look in the mirror, I know I’m looking at someone who isn’t sure she deserves to be loved at all.
