The only thing in your hands is your life—make it as rich as possible.

Enjoy this moment because it may not come again.

Don't choose. Accept life as it is in its totality.

Life is a mystery, not a riddle. It has to be lived, not solved.

We were meant to enjoy life, not be drowned by it.

A harmless hilarity and a buoyant cheerfulness are not infrequent concomitants of genius; and we are never more deceived than when we mistake gravity for greatness, solemnity for science, and pomposity for erudition.
