"Live all you can: it's a mistake not to. It doesn't matter what you do in particular, so long as you have had your life. If you haven't had that, what have you had?"

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."

"It's everybody, I mean. Everything everybody does is so — I don't know — not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and — sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way."

"I envy people that know love. That have someone who takes them as they are."

"Never respond to an angry person with a fiery comeback, even if he deserves it...Don't allow his anger to become your anger."

"That’s the duty of the old, to be anxious on behalf of the young. And the duty of the young is to scorn the anxiety of the old."

"We are not actually in charge of life, yet behave as if we are the masters of our own destiny. The realization of this fact is quite a hard one. The ridiculousness of our pomposity and presumption can only result in anger or humor."

"I feel sorry for people who say they cannot read big books."

"When I think of existence, I cannot help but wonder, "What is life, anyway?"Where do I fit in the grand scheme of life? What is the point of it, anyway? Is this a test—and if so, am I passing it?"

"I thirst for love like a camel thirsts for water. I’m going through a desert right now, but I’m searching for the oasis of my life."

"Discrete vs. Discreet Moonlight falls upon my feet,beyond the sun's overwrought conceit.I'm painted pristine white, without the heat;reflection's cool reflection~ how discreet!"

"Opening up to the wrong person is like putting ammo in their hands."

"I sip my coffee like I fall in love—alone in a field of flowers, writing poetry for the mailman, who delivers love letters, but never gets any."

"If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day."

"Sometimes letting go is simply changing the labels you place on an event. Looking at the same event with fresh eyes."

"Recollection [10w] Recollection recategorize memoriesby sorting them out into different collections."

"I never could bear the idea of anyone's expecting something from me. Italways made me want to do just the opposite."

"Each man lives in many worlds within different life.Mind can only see world in which it lived and located."

"Make the most of every moment. Get excited about every little thing. Why not? Why not have your wonderful moment of excited anticipation? Why not be happy NOW? This is my greatest challenge, but something I'm pouring my heart into: learning how to enjoy what I have, right here, right now. Every moment is precious and although sometimes I struggle to see it, I see it more and more every day."

"I scream for everything that has gone wrong. I scream for everything broken in our lives."
