life quotes

"Just remember, the same as a spectacular Vogue magazine, remember that no matter how close you follow the jumps: Continued on page whatever. No matter how careful you are, there's going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn't experience it all. There's that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should've been paying attention. Well, get used to that feeling. That's how your whole life will feel some day. This is all practice. None of this matters. We're just warming up.” (Chuck Palahniuk)

“Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.”

“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” (Maria Robinson)

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

“The difference between school and life? In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson.” (Tom Bodett)

“The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.” (Oscar Wilde)

“He lives the poetry that he cannot write. The others write the poetry that they dare not realise.” (Oscar Wilde)

“One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.”

“Memory is a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.” (Kevin Arnold)

“Never waste a minute of your precious life by squandering it thinking about people you don't like”

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

“Look at life through the windshield, not the rear-view mirror” (Byrd Baggett)
