~ Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use. ~
~ It may be life is only worthwhile at moments. Perhaps that is all we ought to expect. ~
~ We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~
~ The goal of life is living in agreement with nature. ~
~ Birth, life, and death -- each took place on the hidden side of a leaf. ~
~ Life is like a sewer. What you get out of it depends on what you put into it. ~
~ It is in our lives and not our words that our religion must be read. ~
~ Life can be found only in the present moment. The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life. ~
~ There are two ways to slide easily through life: to believe everything or to doubt everything; both ways save us from thinking. ~
~ Life becomes religious whenever we make it so: when some new light is seen, when some deeper appreciation is felt, when some larger outlook is gained, when some nobler purpose is formed, when some task is well done. ~
~ I have found life an enjoyable, enchanting, active, and sometime terrifying experience, and I've enjoyed it completely. A lament in one ear, maybe, but always a song in the other. ~
~ Life begets life. Energy becomes energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich. ~
