Quote

There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.

Life always kills you in the end, but first it prevents you from getting what you want.

You only get one life. You have to do what you feel is right with it.

Life is but a moment, death also is but another.

Life is life, and one has experiences that are painful and some that are very pleasant, and one has reward and sacrifice and more reward and disappointment and joy and happiness, and it's always going to be the same.

Life has all sorts of hills and valleys, and sometimes you don't end up doing what you had your heart set out on, but sometimes that's even better!

The actual tragedies of life bear no relation to one's preconceived ideas. In the event, one is always bewildered by their simplicity, their grandeur of design, and by that element of the bizarre which seems inherent in them.

One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

Love seeketh not itself to please, nor for itself hath any care, but for another gives its ease, and builds a Heaven in Hell's despair.
