In lieu of intelligent thoughts from me, here are some interesting thoughts from intelligent people: “You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” ― Mae West “Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.” ― Mark Twain “I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.” ― Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul “Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.” ― Dr. Seuss “Everything you can imagine is real.” ― Pablo Picasso “Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” ― George Bernard Shaw “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” ― Albert Einstein “Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson “I'm the one that's got to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.” ― Jimi Hendrix, Jimi Hendrix - Axis: Bold as Love “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, Mother Night “I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.” ― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath “All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring.” ― Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters “I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.” ― Gilda Radner (Courtesy of Goodreads)
