It is no surprise that the first and always unwelcome message of male initiation rites is LIFE – IS – HARD.
You must not end your life because you failed an examination. Failing an examination or making a mistake does not make you a failure at life. The context of life is broader than that.
If your life is a miserable disaster, you might want to consider, that it's because you are doing something wrong.
I lived within the cover of books and those books were more real to me than any other thing in my life.
Life is too short to spend it at war with yourself. Life is too short for you to judge, persecute, hurt yourself. The battle is not yours but the Lord. 2 chronicles 20:15. Leave everything to him.
Our most basic instinct is not for survival but for family. Most of us would give our own life for the survival of a family member, yet we lead our daily life too often as if we take our family for granted.
I knew I loved you before I met you I think I dreamed you into life I knew I loved you before I met you I have been waiting all my life
I think computer viruses should count as life ... I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.
All my life, in nameless, indeterminate ways, I'd tried to complete my life with someone else--first my father, then Hugh, even Whit, and I didn't want that anymore. I wanted to belong to myself.
When you consistently look for the positive things in life it becomes a habit. When you consistently look for the negative things in life it becomes a habit also; therefor, the choices that you make becomes your outlook on life.
I always say to people who want to write: Live life! Don't stand on the rim, don't sit on the sidelines. Make mistakes, make a mess, get it wrong. Read everything, and get out and be life.
YOLO means You Only Live Once, so instead of using it as an expression to do whatever you want, use it as an expression to live life right, because you only get one chance at life.
As long as human labor power, and, consequently, life itself, remain articles of sale and purchase, of exploitation and robbery, the principle of the “sacredness of human life” remains a shameful lie, uttered with the object of keeping the oppres...
When I was a little kid I had a very different meaning of life; simple like a cup of tea with sugar and a piece of cake, today the whole world doesn’t give me that life.
Fear is to begin with the end in mind. There is no end. Life is eternal. Live life knowing that the end was your past, and the future is only full of beautiful beginnings through an eternity built around God’s love.
I learned late on in life that it was the beliefs about myself that dictated how I felt, how I thought and what actions I took, and to change my life for the better I just needed to change my beliefs.
I'm not in search of sanctity, sacredness, purity; these things are found after this life, not in this life; but in this life I search to be completely human: to feel, to give, to take, to laugh, to get lost, to be found, to dance, to love and to lus...
May you live in such a way that your death is just the beginning of your life.
I have had the unfortunate experience of having someone write an unauthorised biography of me. Half of it is lies and the other half is badly written. My feeling is that if I'm going to write my life story, I ought to have my life first.
