Quote

Life is a series of avoiding horrible situations until ultimately you're dead. That's how I feel about things.

When you've been in life-threatening situations, you become aware that life is not for ever.

Perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.

Certain things give you another perspective in life.

Occasions for defining moments do not arise every day. When they do, we must seize the opportunities they present for improving everyone's life.

Life is itself an occupational hazard. Sometimes the things we love hurt us. Embracing and navigating around that contradiction is part of what it is to be alive.

Circumstances in life often take us places that we never intended to go. We visit some places of beauty, others of pain and desolation.

I don't consciously use my own life or experience at all.

Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but how we react to what happens, not by what life brings us but the attitude we bring to life.

Life is an aggregate of experience, which continually surprises us.
