Lifetime

Talent develops in tranquility, character in the full current of human life

You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time

You must, therefore, live with your enemies, as you cannot always live with your friends

I never think of the future. It comes soon enough

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Life is too short to be small

There is no waste of time in life like that of making explanations

The value of life ist not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them; a man may live long yet very little

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Don't take life too seriously; you'll never get out of it alive

Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy; you can't build on it; it's only good for wallowing in

We make war that we may live in peace

Virtue is a state of war, and to live in it we have always to combat with ourselves

Without music, life would be a mistake

We should employ our passions in the service of life, not spend life in the service of our passions.

I love thee with the breath, smiles, tears of all my life

You were made perfectly to be loved - and surely I have loved you, in the idea of you, my whole life long.

It is better to create than to learn. Creating is the essence of life
