Life is the art of drawing sufficent conclusions from insufficient premises.

Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

All animals except man know that the ultimate point of life is to enjoy it. -Samuel Butler.

Human life is as evanescent as the morning dew or a flash of lightning.

Life is a quarry, out of which we are to mold and chisel and complete a character.

All of the animals except for man know that the principle business of life is to enjoy it.
