Our lives are not what we deserve; they are, let us agree, in many ways deficient.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather in our complacency; not in our doing too much, but rather in our doing too little; not in our living above our ability, but rather in our living below our capacities.
We are born weak, we need strength; helpless, we need aid; foolish, we need reason. All that we lack at birth, all that we need when we come to man's estate, is the gift of education.
We're all capable of being more than we presently are, and the effort that it takes and the will that it takes and sometimes the trauma and tragedy that it takes to force us into that kind of growth is the story of our lives.
Someone has to die in order that the rest of us should value life more.
Life is about balance, and we all have to make the effort in areas that we can to enable us to make a difference.
Having failures in life is important to understand where, exactly, you stand.
Every day, we have to strive to be better people. Some days we give in to weakness, and sometimes we give in to strength.
It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute... that gives meaning to our lives.
If you truly believe in the value of life, you care about all of the weakest and most vulnerable members of society.
It is the lives we encounter that make life worth living.
