More on Life
“The conscience can be a strong guide in life if we allow it.”
“The spectacle of Nature is always new, for she is always renewing the spectators. Life is her most exquisite invention; and death is her expert contrivance to get plenty of life.”
“Life is a lot more fun if you treat its challenges in creative ways.”
More on Perspective
“I didn't fear old age. I was just becoming increasingly aware of the fact that the only people who said old age was beautiful were usually twenty-three years old.”
“The past is as powerless to darken the present moment as is a shadow to reach up and drag down the form that casts it.”
“They say that instead of cursing the darkness, one should light a candle. Nothing is mentioned, though, about cursing a lack of candles.”
