Life Quotes
Laziness is the one common deficiency in mankind that blocks the establishment of a perfect world in which everyone leads a happy life.
William Feather
Man must be disappointed with the lesser things of life before he can comprehend the full value of the greater.
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
Make it a life-rule to give your best to whatever passes through your hands. Stamp it with your manhood. Let superiority be your trademark.
Orison Swett Marden
Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.
Marcel Proust
The artist, depicting man disdainful of the storm and stress of life, is no less reconciling and healing than the poet who, while endowing Nature and Humanity, rejoices in its measureless superiority to human passions and human sorrows.
Bernard Berenson
Take a chance! All life is a chance. The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare.
Dale Carnegie
For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.
Mignon McLaughlin
Life is full of chances and changes, and the most prosperous of men may...meet with great misfortunes.
Aristotle
We're given second chances every day of our life. We don't usually take them, but they're there for the taking.
Andrew M. Greeley
You can't accomplish anything worthwhile if you inhibit yourself. If life teaches you nothing else, know this for sure: When you get the chance, go for it.
Oprah Winfrey
As each Sister is to become a Co-Worker of Christ in the slums, each ought to understand what God and the Missionaries of Charity expect from her. Let Christ radiate and live his life in her and through her in the slums. Let the poor, seeing her, be drawn to Christ and invite him to enter their homes and their lives. Let the sick and suffering find in her a real angel of comfort and consolation. Let the little ones of the streets cling to her because she reminds them of him, the friend of the little ones.
Mother Teresa
Vice goes a long way tow'rd makin' life bearable. A little vice now an' thin is relished by th' best iv men.
Finley Peter Dunne
