life

"We should live our lives as though Christ was coming this afternoon."

"Life did not stop, and one had to live."

"Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?"

"I just sprayed cologne on my hand and then pet the back of my cat's head while he slept, and he woke up so confused, trying to sniff behind his neck and all around wondering what sweet attack he was under."

"It’s true, I can’t make you love me. But I can refuse to let you out of your cage."

"People, in general, would rather die than forgive. It's that hard."

"The trick. . .is to find the balance between the bright colors of humor and the serious issues of identity, self-loathing, and the possibility for intimacy and love when it seems no longer possible or, sadder yet, no longer necessary."

"Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections."

"No matter what has happened to you in the past or what is going on in your life right now, it has no power to keep you from having an amazingly good future if you will walk by faith in God. God loves you! He wants you to live with victory over sin so you can possess His promises for your life today!"

"Magic exists. Who can doubt it, when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind and the silence of the stars? Anyone who has loved has been touched by magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live."

"The terrorists thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions, but nothing changed in my life except this: weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage were born."

"Look. I have a strategy. Why expect anything? If you don’t expect anything, you don’t get disappointed."

"Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place."

"Love changes what is probable and makes unlikely things possible."

"Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent."

"Holding this soft, small living creature in my lap this way, though, and seeing how it slept with complete trust in me, I felt a warm rush in my chest. I put my hand on the cat's chest and felt his heart beating. The pulse was faint and fast, but his heart, like mine, was ticking off the time allotted to his small body with all the restless earnestness of my own."

"The world may be running out of water, but it isn’t running low on music. Let the dancing flow!"

"I'm sure you think that I don't understand what you're going through, but I do. It's just that sometimes, our future is dictated by what we are, opposed to what we want."

"I had spent my whole life feeling homesick. The only difference between the two of us was that I didn't know what or where home was."
