The final wisdom of life requires not the annulment of incongruity but the achievement of serenity within and above it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Life has no meaning the moment you lose the illusion of being eternal.
Supreme serenity still remains the Ideal of great Art. The shapes and transitory forms of life are but stages toward this Ideal, which Christ's religion illuminates with His divine light.
Wisdom may best arise from a humbling reality.
Integrity of life is fame's best friend, which nobly, beyond death, shall crown in the end.
Either life entails courage, or it ceases to be life.
The philosophy of life is this: Life is not a struggle, not a tension... Life is bliss. It is eternal wisdom, eternal existence.
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for Eternal Wisdom created nothing under the sun in vain.
Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.
Wisdom is the abstract of the past, but beauty is the promise of the future.
Serenity is the balance between good and bad, life and death, horrors and pleasures. Life is, as it were, defined by death. If there wasn't death of things, then there wouldn't be any life to celebrate.
