Bradley Whitford | Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love.

The worst moments of my life have come as a SEAL. But I can stand before God with a clear conscience about doing my job. | 101 |
Chris Pine | Life flies by, and it's easy to get lost in the blur. In adolescence, it's 'How do I fit in?' In your 20s, it's 'What do I want to do?' In your 30s, 'Is this what I'm meant to do?' I think the trick is living the questions. Not worrying so much about what's ahead but rather sitting in the grey area - being OK with where you are. | 101 |
Daisaku Ikeda | You must not for one instant give up the effort to build new lives for yourselves. Creativity means to push open the heavy, groaning doorway to life. | 101 |

James E. Faust | In this life, we have to make many choices. Some are very important choices. Some are not. Many of our choices are between good and evil. The choices we make, however, determine to a large extent our happiness or our unhappiness, because we have to live with the consequences of our choices. | 101 |
Jennifer Lopez | I don't regret what I've been through. I've had ups and downs, super highs and some really low lows. I've been so blessed that I could never say, 'I wish this didn't happen.' It's part of who I am. There's nothing in my life that's so ugh. | 101 |

Lincoln Steffens | The longer I live, the more I feel that the individual is not so much to blame - not even the worst individuals, not even the 'best' citizens - as the system of corruption which has grown up about us, and which rewards an honest man with a mere living and a crook with all the magnificence of our magnificent modern life. | 101 |

Mike Singletary | Because too many times in life there's just one person that I met, just one thing that I heard, one movie that I saw, one song that was sung, that changed my life. So I'm always trying to stay awake to be in the moment, and capture the moments when they come, because they come and go all the time. | 101 |
Mindy Kaling | I try not to put anything political on the forefront of what I'm trying to do creatively.

My life is very diverse, and my friends are a diverse group of people. | 101 |
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum | My theory on life is that life is beautiful. Life doesn't change. You have a day, and a night, and a month, and a year. We people change - we can be miserable or we can be happy. It's what you make of your life. | 101 |

Neale Donald Walsch | Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. | 101 |
Nick Carter | It's like Forrest Gump said, 'Life is like a box of chocolates.' Your career is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get. But everything you get is going to teach you something along the way and make you the person you are today. That's the exciting part - it's an adventure in itself. | 101 |
Nicole Ari Parker | We're all moving at such a high rate that we have to grab the frozen dinners and the McDonald's. We can't make it a way of life - we have to get back to real, simple, clean good foods. It will save our lives on so many levels; not just spina bifida, but obesity, diabetes, everything. Food is our medicine. | 101 |
Nicole Polizzi | I think the biggest misconception about me is people really don't know who I really am. They see the party side of me, they see the crazy side of me.

Peter Marshall | When we long for life without difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure. | 101 |

Phillips Brooks | Be patient and understanding. Life is too short to be vengeful or malicious. | 101 |
Phylicia Rashad | Loving oneself isn't hard, when you understand who and what 'yourself' is. It has nothing to do with the shape of your face, the size of your eyes, the length of your hair or the quality of your clothes. It's so beyond all of those things and it's what gives life to everything about you. Your own self is such a treasure. | 101 |
Prem Rawat | Life is a tide; float on it. Go down with it and go up with it, but be detached. Then it is not difficult. | 101 |
Rafael Nadal | I love the beach. I love the sea. All my life I live within - in front of the sea. | 101 |
Rick Warren | Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of ups and downs. It's a journey of discovery - there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair. | 101 |
Rihanna | I don't do things for the response or for the controversy. I just live my life. | 101 |
Rollo May | Life comes from physical survival; but the good life comes from what we care about. | 101 |
Ron White | I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party. | 101 |
Rose Kennedy | Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments. | 101 |

Solomon Ortiz | Education is the key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students. | 101 |

Sophia Loren | You have to enjoy life. Always be surrounded by people that you like, people who have a nice conversation. There are so many positive things to think about. | 101 |
Stella Adler | The theatre was created to tell people the truth about life and the social situation. | 101 |
Steve Gleason | If we have a purpose in life beyond being a cog in the human machine, mine is to help inspire people and that's pretty cool. I would like to motivate the world. | 101 |
Suze Orman | When you are grateful - when you can see what you have - you unlock blessings to flow in your life. | 101 |

Tim Kaine | I think life is sacred, whether it's abortion or the death penalty. | 101 |
Tim Tebow | I'm just thankful for everything, all the blessings in my life, trying to stay that way. I think that's the best way to start your day and finish your day. It keeps everything in perspective. | 101 |
Tom Bodett | In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson. | 101 |
Tom Brokaw | You are educated. Your certification is in your degree. You may think of it as the ticket to the good life. Let me ask you to think of an alternative. Think of it as your ticket to change the world. | 101 |
Tom DeLonge | There's a time in your life where you're not quite sure where you are. You think everything's perfect, but it's not perfect... Then one day you wake up and you can't quite picture yourself in the situation you're in. But the secret is, if you can picture yourself doing anything in life, you can do it. | 101 |
Tullian Tchividjian | The deepest fear we have, 'the fear beneath all fears,' is the fear of not measuring up, the fear of judgment. It's this fear that creates the stress and depression of everyday life. | 101 |
Ursula Andress | I take care of my flowers and my cats. And enjoy food. And that's living. | 101 |
Valerie Bertinelli | Happiness is a choice. You can choose to be happy. There's going to be stress in life, but it's your choice whether you let it affect you or not. | 101 |
Vincent Nichols | The love of husband and wife, which is creative of new human life, is a marvellously personal sharing in the creative love of God who brings into being the eternal soul that comes to every human being with the gift of human life. | 101 |

William Feather | One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure. | 101 |

Yoko Ono | Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life. | 101 |
Zygmunt Bauman | In a liquid modern life there are no permanent bonds, and any that we take up for a time must be tied loosely so that they can be untied again, as quickly and as effortlessly as possible, when circumstances change - as they surely will in our liquid modern society, over and over again. | 101 |
A. R. Rahman | Each one of us has our own evolution of life, and each one of us goes through different tests which are unique and challenging. But certain things are common. And we do learn things from each other's experience. On a spiritual journey, we all have the same destination. | 101 |
Alastair Campbell | So here is one of my theories on happiness: we cannot know if we have lived a truly happy life until the very end. This view of life and death was reinforced by my close witnessing of the buildup to the death of Philip Gould. Philip was without doubt my closest friend in politics. When he died, I felt like I had lost a limb. | 101 |
Aleksandar Hemon | I have two homes, like someone who leaves their hometown and/or parents and then establishes a life elsewhere. They might say that they're going home when they return to see old friends or parents, but then they go home as well when they go to where they live now. Sarajevo is home, Chicago is home. | 101 |
Alexis Carrel | Like hatred, jealousy is forbidden by the laws of life because it is essentially destructive. | 101 |

Andrew Wiles | I had this rare privilege of being able to pursue in my adult life, what had been my childhood dream. | 101 |
Avril Lavigne | Life is like a roller coaster, live it, be happy, enjoy life. | 101 |
Berthold Auerbach | Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. | 101 |
Bob Feller | Every day is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday's success or put its failures behind and start over again. That's the way life is, with a new game every day, and that's the way baseball is. | 101 |
Boris Pasternak | Surprise is the greatest gift which life can grant us. | 101 |
Chris Christie | And the greatest lesson that mom ever taught me though was this one. She told me there would be times in your life when you have to choose between being loved and being respected. Now she said to always pick being respected. | 101 |
Cameron Diaz | I'm very happy with the way I look. I wake up some morning, catch myself in the bathroom mirror, and go, 'hey girl, you're alright'. But on the other hand, I find the website stuff, and the polls, something completely removed from my own personal life. You can't take anything like that too seriously, otherwise you'd end up in the loony bin. | 101 |
Coolio | Life is too short to not have fun; we are only here for a short time compared to the sun and the moon and all that. | 101 |

Ed Markey | We must vote for hope, vote for life, vote for a brighter future for all of our loved ones. | 101 |
Edgar Ramirez | For me, no ideological or political conviction would justify the sacrifice of a human life. For me, the value of life is absolute, with no concessions. It's not negotiable. | 101 |
Edward Whitacre, Jr. | Be willing to step outside your comfort zone once in a while; take the risks in life that seem worth taking. The ride might not be as predictable if you'd just planted your feet and stayed put, but it will be a heck of a lot more interesting. | 101 |
Eric Braeden | Raising children is an enormously important part of life. I think one of the most important, or the most important, period. | 101 |
Eric Davis | Life is too short to worry about anything. You had better enjoy it because the next day promises nothing. | 101 |
Gabriel Byrne | Presents don't really mean much to me. I don't want to sound mawkish, but - it was the realization that I have a great many people in my life who really love me, and who I really love. | 101 |
Geoffrey Rush | I always had a fantasy of being a chef, because I like kitchen life. | 101 |

Gwen Stefani | Life is short and you've got to get the most out of it. | 101 |
Hoda Kotb | People think that you have to do something huge, like go to Africa and build a school, but you can make a small change in a day. If you change Wednesday, then you change Thursday. Pretty soon it's a week, then a month, then a year. It's bite-size, as opposed to feeling like you have to turn your life inside out to make changes. | 101 |
Hugh Mackay | Nothing is perfect. Life is messy. Relationships are complex. Outcomes are uncertain. People are irrational. | 101 |
Hugh Sidey | A sense of humor... is needed armor. Joy in one's heart and some laughter on one's lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life. | 101 |
Islom Karimov | When there is life and mankind, a person will live striving for good deeds, liberty and a bright life, and wish that goodness and justice will reign in the world. | 101 |
James Patterson | Life is hard, and a lot of people come home tired from work. If they're gonna spend half an hour reading, they want some entertainment and a sense of achievement. So that's what I give them. That's all I'm trying to do. Is that really so wrong? | 101 |
Jane McGonigal | Although I'm perceived as very optimistic and upbeat, it comes out of being the opposite of that - feeling isolated or lonely, looking for meaning and the kinds of things that ease that suffering in life, and finding them in large-scale social interaction, like theater and games. | 101 |
Jeffrey Kluger | It's one of the worst-kept secrets of family life that all parents have a preferred son or daughter, and the rules for acknowledging it are the same everywhere: The favored kids recognize their status and keep quiet about it - the better to preserve the good thing they've got going and to keep their siblings off their back. | 101 |
John W. Gardner | Life is the art of drawing without an eraser. | 101 |
Karen Finerman | It's OK to have a plan, to invest in your future - for your financial security, your love life, your personal fulfillment, and even your happiness. To have personal happiness as a stated goal doesn't detract from it if you get there. | 101 |
Kay Granger | Human rights are not a privilege granted by the few, they are a liberty entitled to all, and human rights, by definition, include the rights of all humans, those in the dawn of life, the dusk of life, or the shadows of life. | 101 |
Kelly McGillis | Life is a journey and it's about growing and changing and coming to terms with who and what you are and loving who and what you are. | 101 |

Keri Russell | Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever. | 101 |

Lennie James | If you look in real life, it is very hard to describe people as good people, bad people, heroes or villains. People aren't bad people. They all have their justifications. | 101 |
Lily Cole | I don't think of myself as a role model for others, but I like to live my life by my own integrity. So, in that sense, I might be a positive influence. I do believe you should get over your insecurities and just try to be the best you can. | 101 |
Linda Thompson | Our uniqueness, our individuality, and our life experience molds us into fascinating beings. I hope we can embrace that. I pray we may all challenge ourselves to delve into the deepest resources of our hearts to cultivate an atmosphere of understanding, acceptance, tolerance, and compassion. We are all in this life together. | 101 |
Luanne Rice | One of my earliest memories is of seeing my mother in her beach chair, reading a book under an umbrella by the water's edge while my sisters and I played beside her. Of all the life lessons she taught me, that is one of my favorites: to take time at a place I love, restore my spirit with books and the beach. | 101 |
Lucas Grabeel | The greatest thing about where my life is right now is it's very relaxed and chill. I'm just hanging out, being myself and doing my work. | 101 |

Matt Cameron | Live life to the fullest, and focus on the positive. | 101 |

Michael Leunig | Avoiding maturity is, for many men, not just a cute hobby, but a life's work - often handsomely rewarded in the infantile popular culture of the West. | 101 |
Mickey Rooney | Sometimes the transition from being in control of your life to having absolutely no control is swift, but other times it is so gradual that you wonder exactly when it truly began. | 101 |
Miranda Kerr | I feel like life is really short, and it's important to enjoy yourself and embrace whatever comes your way, whether it's a challenging day or a great day, just welcome it with open arms. No matter who you are, you can't escape challenges; they are part of life. | 101 |

Philip Green | It's all about quality of life and finding a happy balance between work and friends and family. | 101 |

Ranbir Kapoor | I'm actually pretty shy in real life. But I guess in front of the camera, I focus. | 101 |
Rashida Jones | Smiling is definitely one of the best beauty remedies. If you have a good sense of humor and a good approach to life, that's beautiful. | 101 |
Rodney Atkins | You choose to be happy, and in life we have as many good days as bad days. I try to find and record those songs that pull you through the bad days, and keep you believing that the good days are just around the corner. | 101 |
Ron Perlman | I think now that I'm in the autumn of my life, and I'm getting a chance of having an overview and looking at the shape of how things happen, when things happen, why things happen, I think it was fitting that I spent most of my early career doing mask work, because I just don't think I was that comfortable in my own skin. | 101 |
Sara Paretsky | I'm lucky in having found the perfect partner to spend my life with. | 101 |

Sharron Angle | There is a plan and a purpose, a value to every life, no matter what its location, age, gender or disability. | 101 |

Srikumar Rao | I believe that if you don't derive a deep sense of purpose from what you do, if you don't come radiantly alive several times a day, if you don't feel deeply grateful at the tremendous good fortune that has been bestowed on you, then you are wasting your life. And life is too short to waste. | 101 |
Teri Garr | Take a step back, evaluate what is important, and enjoy life. | 101 |
Tom Lehman | To have faith doesn't mean you get any less frustrated when you don't do your best, but you know that it's not life and death. Take what you're given, and when you continue to work hard, you will see results. That will give you the confidence you need to keep going. | 101 |
Tom Watson | I'm very happy with my life. I am what I am. I don't worry about anything that I can't control. That's a really good lesson in life. | 101 |

David L. Wolper | Relax! Life is beautiful! | 101 |
David Russell | The hardest thing in life to learn is which bridge to cross and which to burn. | 101 |

Dustin Hoffman | The two basic items necessary to sustain life are sunshine and coconut milk. | 101 |
Earl Blumenauer | Mr. Speaker, from hurricanes and floods in Latin America to earthquakes in Asia, natural disasters are increasingly becoming a regular feature of life for large numbers of people around the globe. | 101 |
Emmy Rossum | Being yourself is one of the hardest things because it's scary. You always wonder whether you'll be accepted for who you really are. I decided to call my record 'Inside Out' because that's my motto about life. I don't think you ever succeed at trying to be anyone else but who you truly are. | 101 |
Graham Brown | Life is about choices. Some we regret, some were proud of. Some will haunt us forever. 'Black Rain' was very much about choices. The message - we are what we chose to be. | 101 |
Hugh Dillon | Life is too short to spend in negativity. So I have made a conscious effort to not be where I don't want to be. | 101 |

Juliette Binoche | What I love most about this crazy life is the adventure of it. | 101 |
Lillian Gish | A happy life is one spent in learning, earning, and yearning. | 101 |
Mathew Brady | No one will ever know what I went through to secure those negatives. The world can never appreciate it. It changed the whole course of my life. | 101 |
Miriam Toews | The whole notion of pain, and how every individual experiences pain, is up for debate. We don't know how another person experiences pain - physical pain or psychic pain. Some of these clinics where assisted suicide or euthanasia is practiced, they call it 'weariness of life.' | 101 |
Ralph Merkle | If you look at the human condition today, not everyone is well fed, has access to good medical care, or the physical basics that provide for a healthy and a happy life. | 101 |
Raul Labrador | My mom worked at McDonald's, and she decided she wanted to make more money, so she got into the management program at McDonald's. And that's how you move up the chain. It's not by demanding that minimum wage is raised; it's by actually acquiring the skills. That's the way that people get ahead in life. | 101 |
Riley Keough | Life changes so quickly. feeling grateful to be around such wonderful people to strengthen and grow with. | 101 |

Walter Anderson | Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have - life itself. | 101 |
Adam Gopnik | Going to a restaurant is one of my keenest pleasures. Meeting someplace with old and new friends, ordering wine, eating food, surrounded by strangers, I think is the core of what it means to live a civilised life. | 101 |
Andrew Shue | Life is the most exciting opportunity we have. But we have one shot. You graduate from college once, and that's it. You're going out of that nest. And you have to find that courage that's deep, deep, deep in there. Every step of the way. | 101 |
Arthur Keith | The discovery of agriculture was the first big step toward a civilized life. | 101 |
Claude Pepper | Life is like riding a bicycle: you don't fall off unless you stop pedaling. | 101 |

Dorothy Stang | The death of the forest is the end of our life. | 101 |
Edwin Markham | The crest and crowning of all good, Life's final star, is brotherhood. | 101 |

Jasmine Guinness | I've known my best friend since I was a baby, and I don't know what I would do without her. She is always straight with me and can make me laugh hysterically. Everyone should have someone like that in their life. | 101 |
Joe Jonas | 'Fast Life' is just about going out with your friends and having a good time - I think it's one of those songs that people can relate with and like. | 101 |
Michael Shannon | You can't escape this feeling of disintegration. The world is fragile. But you also can't let it ruin your life. I'm actually a pretty composed person. I guess people imagine I spend my life thinking about crazy, sinister things but I don't, really. It's not like I'm trying to exorcise any demons. | 101 |
Mireille Guiliano | Make treating yourself a priority and always remember your life is happening now. Don't put off all your dreams and pleasures to another day. In any balanced personal definition of success there has to be a powerful element of living life in the present. | 101 |
Robert James Waller | Life is never easy for those who dream. | 101 |
Robert Wagner | A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won't be too bad. | 101 |
Bobby Brown | I feel that the simplicity of life is just being yourself. | 101 |
Caterina Murino | I have a dream of re-creating the fantastic family I grew up in with my brother and my parents. I am lucky that I have such a good image of family life - my father and mother are still in love, still happy. | 101 |
Christa B. Allen | Sometimes work is a bit slow, and I always wanted to be a princess at Disneyland. There were 1,500 of us who auditioned, and 11 of us were hired. I went through all of the training, but never ended up actually getting to play Belle because 'Revenge' started. It was the time of my life, though! | 101 |
Cindy Morgan | I love spending time with my friends and family. The simplest things in life give me the most pleasure: cooking a good meal, enjoying my friends. | 101 |

Rafe Spall | Being kind is the most important thing I've ever been taught. That's what my parents always told me - more important than ambition or success is being kind to people. The cornerstone of my life. What I aspire to is to be kind. | 101 |
Amanda Crew | Life is too short to be doing work that doesn't make you feel happy and fulfilled. I'd rather wait for the right project, as opposed to just taking whatever is handed to me. | 101 |
Carlos Salinas de Gortari | Globalization is a fact of economic life. | 101 |
James Cromwell | Pets are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life. | 101 |
Junior Seau | No excuses and no sob stories. Life is full of excuses if you're looking. I have no time to gripe over misfortune. I don't waste time looking back. | 101 |
Steve Wilkos | I'm a big believer in personal responsibility. My life wasn't always peaches and roses. Where I am today is through a belief in hard work and never saying no. | 101 |
Terri Apter | When a mother quarrels with a daughter, she has a double dose of unhappiness hers from the conflict, and empathy with her daughter's from the conflict with her. Throughout her life a mother retains this special need to maintain a good relationship with her daughter. | 101 |
Jeff Ross | Life is short. You have to be able to laugh at our pain or we never move on. | 101 |
Joan D. Vinge | We are all born with a unique genetic blueprint, which lays out the basic characteristics of our personality as well as our physical health and appearance... And yet, we all know that life experiences do change us. | 101 |
Juan Pablo Galavis | In life, you have to take the pace that love goes. You don't force it. You just don't force love, you don't force falling in love, you don't force being in love - you just become. I don't know how to say that in English, but you just feel it. | 101 |
Michael Stuhlbarg | Things never go the way you expect them to. That's both the joy and frustration in life. I'm finding as I get older that I don't mind, though. It's the surprises that tickle me the most, the things you don't see coming. | 101 |
Romy Schneider | I don't know anything about life, but everything about cinema. | 101 |
Aamir Khan | The journey that I have undertaken, meeting people from all walks of life and learning from them, has been my biggest achievement. | 101 |
Al Lopez | Do what you love to do and give it your very best. Whether it's business or baseball, or the theater, or any field. If you don't love what you're doing and you can't give it your best, get out of it. Life is too short. You'll be an old man before you know it. | 101 |
Arthur Rubinstein | I have found that if you love life, life will love you back. | 101 |

Johnny Isakson | In the real estate business you learn more about people, and you learn more about community issues, you learn more about life, you learn more about the impact of government, probably than any other profession that I know of. | 101 |
Ashley Smith | Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams. | 101 |

Anais Nin | Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. | 102 |

Audrey Hepburn | The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters. | 102 |

Bob Marley | Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live! | 102 |
Bruce Lee | If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. | 102 |
David Attenborough | It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living. | 102 |
David Bowie | Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I'm referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man. | 102 |
Eckhart Tolle | It is through gratitude for the present moment that the spiritual dimension of life opens up. | 102 |
Edgar Allan Poe | The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins? | 102 |
Ernest Hemingway | I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know? | 102 |
Florence Nightingale | If I could give you information of my life, it would be to show how a woman of very ordinary ability has been led by God in strange and unaccustomed paths to do In His service what He has done in her. And if I could tell you all, you would see how God has done all, and I nothing. | 102 |
Gilbert K. Chesterton | When it comes to life the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude. | 102 |

Thich Nhat Hanh | If you truly get in touch with a piece of carrot, you get in touch with the soil, the rain, the sunshine.

If we chew every morsel of our food in that way we become grateful and when you are grateful, you are happy. | 102 |
Thomas Merton | Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone - we find it with another. | 102 |

Viktor E. Frankl | Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression of the state of being human. | 102 |

Woody Allen | Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon. | 102 |
Ivanka Trump | People talk about balance. Balance is an awful measure of things because it implies a scale that inevitably tips. I like to look through the filter of, 'Is the life I'm leading consistent with my priorities?' For me, my family is the ultimate litmus test. | 102 |

Charles R. Swindoll | I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun. | 102 |
Christopher McCandless | So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality, nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit. | 102 |

Marcus Garvey | If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. | 102 |

Sophocles | It was my care to make my life illustrious not by words more than by deeds. | 102 |

Ariana Grande | Love is a really scary thing, and you never know what's going to happen. It's one of the most beautiful things in life, but it's one of the most terrifying. It's worth the fear because you have more knowledge, experience, you learn from people, and you have memories. | 102 |
Arthur Ashe | From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life. | 102 |

Ben Stein | The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want. | 102 |
Bernie Siegel | God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings, not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations, but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process, and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all, suffering will cease. | 102 |
Beth Ditto | As with most phobias, the fear of flying does make some sense, but if ever there was a fear worth quashing then this is it. After all, life is short, and there's a great big world to explore out there. | 102 |
Bill Watterson | Reality continues to ruin my life. | 102 |

Carl Lewis | People have a moral standard about what they will do and will not do. At the end of the day someone who cheats has a lower moral standard than someone who does not. And they will cheat in other areas of life as well. | 102 |

Caroline Kennedy | It's true, Christmas can feel like a lot of work, particularly for mothers. But when you look back on all the Christmases in your life, you'll find you've created family traditions and lasting memories. Those memories, good and bad, are really what help to keep a family together over the long haul. | 102 |
Cesare Pavese | The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten. | 102 |
Daisaku Ikeda | It is crucial that we develop real awareness of ourselves as citizens of Earth, linked by mutual and indissoluble bonds. When we clearly recognize this reality and ground ourselves in it, we are compelled to take a strict accounting of our way of life. | 102 |
Don Miguel Ruiz | Don't Make Assumptions. Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. | 102 |
Drew Barrymore | I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I'm actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they, in turn, were my life lessons. | 102 |
Earl Nightingale | We are at our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we've established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile. | 102 |
Edward de Bono | Creativity is a great motivator because it makes people interested in what they are doing. Creativity gives hope that there can be a worthwhile idea. Creativity gives the possibility of some sort of achievement to everyone. Creativity makes life more fun and more interesting. | 102 |

Haruki Murakami | Concentration is one of the happiest things in my life. | 102 |
Harvey Fierstein | Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself. | 102 |
Heidi Klum | I've been heartbroken. I've broken hearts. That's part of life, and its part of figuring out who you are so you can find the right partner. | 102 |
Henry B. Eyring | The Lord protects, guides, and watches over those who are His trusted friends in His work. His work and that of His Father and our Father is to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of the children of God. And Satan, the enemy of our happiness, opposes those who serve the Lord. | 102 |
Hugh Jackman | The secret to modern life is finding the measure in time management. I have two kids, career and I travel, and I don't think my life is any different than most couples. The most valuable commodity now for many people is time and how to parcel that out. | 102 |
Jack Canfield | It's not an accident that musicians become musicians and engineers become engineers: it's what they're born to do. If you can tune into your purpose and really align with it, setting goals so that your vision is an expression of that purpose, then life flows much more easily. | 102 |
Jacques Yves Cousteau | Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans. | 102 |
James Dean | If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man. | 102 |
James Russell Lowell | As life runs on, the road grows strange with faces new - and near the end. The milestones into headstones change, Neath every one a friend. | 102 |
Jawaharlal Nehru | Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will. | 102 |
Jean de La Fontaine | Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life. | 102 |
Jennifer Aniston | I think it's important to have closure in any relationship that ends - from a romantic relationship to a friendship. You should always have a sense of clarity at the end and know why it began and why it ended. You need that in your life to move cleanly into your next phase. | 102 |
Jennifer Lopez | I've always had a huge fear of dying or becoming ill. The thing I'm most afraid of, though, is being alone, which I think a lot of performers fear. It's why we seek the limelight - so we're not alone, were adored. We're loved, so people want to be around us. The fear of being alone drives my life. | 102 |
Jimmy Dean | Poverty was the greatest motivating factor in my life. | 102 |
Joyce Giraud | With me, what you see is what you get. Yes, call me naive, but I love life. I am happy, and for that, I make no apologies. I do like to see the best in people, and when someone is nice to my face, I tend to believe them. | 102 |
Karen Salmansohn | The grass is always greener on the other side - until you get there and see it's AstroTurf. Symbols are never reality. Someone might have amassed material success and fame, but that doesn't mean they're happy. So, don't go judging a person's life by the cover. | 102 |
Kevyn Aucoin | Life is too short to spend hoping that the perfectly arched eyebrow or hottest new lip shade will mask an ugly heart. | 102 |
Lance Armstrong | There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say: 'Enough is enough.' | 102 |
Lilly Singh | Life is designed to knock you down. It will knock you down time and time again, but it doesn't matter how many times you fall - it matters how many times you get back up. | 102 |
Lucille Ball | One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself. | 102 |
Ludwig van Beethoven | Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. | 102 |
Michio Kaku | Our grandkids will lead the lives of the gods of mythology. Zeus could think and move objects around. We'll have that power. Venus had a perfect, timeless body. We'll have that, too. Pegasus was a flying horse. We'll be able to modify life in the future. | 102 |
Miranda Hart | The embarrassment of a situation can, once you are over it, be the funniest time in your life. And I suppose a lot of my comedy comes from painful moments or experiences in life, and you just flip them on their head. | 102 |
Norman Cousins | A library is the delivery room for the birth of ideas, a place where history comes to life. | 102 |
Novalis | Only an artist can interpret the meaning of life. | 102 |
Pedro Calderon de la Barca | What is life? A madness. What is life? An illusion, a shadow, a story. And the greatest good is little enough; for all life is a dream, and dreams themselves are only dreams. | 102 |
Pope Paul VI | All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today. | 102 |
Ralph Marston | 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. | 102 |
Rita Rudner | It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. | 102 |
Samuel Smiles | The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved. | 102 |
Sidney Crosby | The biggest thing for me is the passion that I've always had for hockey. I remember growing up, no matter what I did in life, my parents always told me to try to do my best at it and be my best. I can say going through different things that that passion is the most important part. It's not skills or talent or any of that stuff. | 102 |
Sophia Loren | There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. | 102 |
Stella Adler | The word theatre comes from the Greeks. It means the seeing place. It is the place people come to see the truth about life and the social situation. | 102 |
Steve Irwin | I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it. | 102 |
Suze Orman | A big part of financial freedom is having your heart and mind free from worry about the what-ifs of life. | 102 |
Terrell Owens | Life and death. At some point we're gonna leave this world. Do I know when? Absolutely not. | 102 |
Thomas S. Monson | The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of love and of generosity and of goodness. It illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world's busy life and become more interested in people than in things. | 102 |
Tori Amos | Being stylish is about enjoying your life and expressing yourself and your inner light. | 102 |
Tyler Cowen | Economics is everywhere, and understanding economics can help you make better decisions and lead a happier life. | 102 |

Willie Nelson | When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around. | 102 |
Wilma Rudolph | Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday. | 102 |
Wilson Mizner | It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found. | 102 |
Brooke Shields | Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life. | 102 |
Cary Grant | My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can. | 102 |
Dada Vaswani | Marriage is a commitment for life. It is a permanent, lifelong relationship. | 102 |
Eileen Caddy | Gratitude helps you to grow and expand; gratitude brings joy and laughter into your life and into the lives of all those around you. | 102 |
Emma Roberts | I grew up with just my mom. She and I were like best friends. She's a very independent woman and I admire that about her. In my life, I've tried to be like that. To be okay with being on my own and being independent. | 102 |
Heywood Broun | Brotherhood is not just a Bible word. Out of comradeship can come and will come the happy life for all. | 102 |
Hosea Ballou | Preaching is to much avail, but practice is far more effective. A godly life is the strongest argument you can offer the skeptic. | 102 |
Jackie Joyner-Kersee | All I ever wanted really, and continue to want out of life, is to give 100 percent to whatever I'm doing and to be committed to whatever I'm doing and then let the results speak for themselves. Also to never take myself or people for granted and always be thankful and grateful to the people who helped me. | 102 |
Maeve Binchy | I have always believed that life is too short for rows and disagreements. Even if I think I'm right, I would prefer to apologize and remain friends rather than win and be an enemy. | 102 |
Max de Pree | We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing, and inclusion. | 102 |
Travis Barker | Thank you for life, and all the little ups and downs that make it worth living. | 102 |
Edward Fitzgerald | The Wine of Life keeps oozing drop by drop, The Leaves of Life keep falling one by one. | 102 |
Dale Evans | Life is not over because you have diabetes. Make the most of what you have, be grateful. | 102 |
Samuel Ullman | Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. | 102 |
Jose Carreras | I am extraordinarily lucky, I was born in a family of strong moral values, and in my life I was able to do what I liked best: debuts, great theatres, but above all, inner and deep satisfaction. | 102 |
Amisha Patel | Life is all about evolution. What looks like a mistake to others has been a milestone in my life. Even if people have betrayed me, even if my heart was broken, even if people misunderstood or judged me, I have learned from these incidents. We are human and we make mistakes, but learning from them is what makes the difference. | 102 |
Donald Trump | My whole life is about winning. I don't lose often. I almost never lose. | 103 |

Socrates | Beware the barrenness of a busy life. | 103 |
Steve Jobs | Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. | 103 |
Thomas Jefferson | Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits. | 103 |
Arthur Schopenhauer | Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life. | 103 |
Audrey Hepburn | The best thing to hold onto in life is each other. | 103 |
Deepak Chopra | If you want to do really important things in life and big things in life, you can't do anything by yourself. And your best teams are your friends and your siblings. | 103 |
Frank Lloyd Wright | Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former and have seen no reason to change. | 103 |
Hillary Clinton | The worst thing that can happen in a democracy - as well as in an individual's life - is to become cynical about the future and lose hope. | 103 |
Isaac Asimov | I don't believe in an afterlife, so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse. | 103 |
Jimi Hendrix | The story of life is quicker than the blink of an eye, the story of love is hello, goodbye. | 103 |
Joseph Campbell | A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself. | 103 |

Leonard Cohen | Music is the emotional life of most people. | 103 |
Lord Byron | Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life. The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, and tints tomorrow with prophetic ray. | 103 |

Victor Hugo | Life is the flower for which love is the honey. | 103 |
W. E. B. Du Bois | Education must not simply teach work - it must teach Life. | 103 |

Will Rogers | Do the best you can, and don't take life too serious. | 103 |
William Butler Yeats | Life is a long preparation for something that never happens. | 103 |

Martin Luther | Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times. | 108 |
Michelle Obama | Although the circumstances of our lives may seem very disengaged, with me standing here as the First Lady of the United States of America and you just getting through school, I want you to know we have very much in common. For nothing in my life ever would have predicted that I would be standing here as the first African-American First Lady. | 108 |
Napoleon Hill | It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project. | 108 |

Michael Jordan | I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed. | 113 |

Michael Jordan | Be true to the game, because the game will be true to you. If you try to shortcut the game, then the game will shortcut you. If you put forth the effort, good things will be bestowed upon you. That's truly about the game, and in some ways that's about life too. | 115 |
Joel Osteen | I wouldn't ever say if you're having tough times then there must be something wrong with you or your attitude. Life's a fight. It's a good fight of faith. I encourage people to stay up, stay hopeful, stay faith-filled. | 115 |

Anthony Hopkins | I love life because what more is there? | 115 |

C. S. Lewis | Everyone has noticed how hard it is to turn our thoughts to God when everything is going well with us... While what we call 'our own life' remains agreeable, we will not surrender it to Him. What, then, can God do in our interests but make 'our own life' less agreeable to us, and take away the plausible sources of false happiness? | 120 |

William Lyon Phelps | The fear of life is the favorite disease of the 20th century. | 123 |
Barack Obama | My family, frankly, they weren't folks who went to church every week. My mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew but she didn't raise me in the church, so I came to my Christian faith later in life and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead. | 124 |
Helen Keller | Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. | 124 |

Steve Jobs | I have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I've done that sort of thing in my life, but I've always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don't know why. Because they're harder. They're much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you've completely failed. | 126 |
Emily Dickinson | That it will never come again is what makes life sweet. | 126 |
Buzz Aldrin | When I was a little kid, we only knew about our nine planets. Since then, we've downgraded Pluto but have discovered that other solar systems and stars are common. So life is probably quite prevalent. | 126 |

Eleanor Roosevelt | If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor. | 204 |
Henry David Thoreau | Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than destroy it. | 204 |

Henry David Thoreau | To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts. | 207 |

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe | All theory, dear friend, is gray, but the golden tree of life springs ever green. | 210 |
Leo Tolstoy | True life is lived when tiny changes occur. | 210 |

William Shakespeare | This life, which had been the tomb of his virtue and of his honour, is but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. | 213 |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow | Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence. | 213 |
