One is never wounded by the love one gives, only by the love one expects.
~ Marty Rubin
The slope contains many wonders not found at the summit.
Philosophers console themselves with explanations.
The search for first causes is the ultimate wild goose chase.
When you separate thought from life, you get philosophy.
Logical positivism is philosophy from the neck up.
The questions philosophers ask are not so much meaningless as irrelevant.
No explanation is ever as good as not having one.
We never solve the big questions, we outgrow them.
The truth is what you live through while you're looking for the truth.
Never confuse a hunger for knowledge with a thirst for truth.
If words are the truth, what is living for?
What is true today may be false tomorrow, and true again the day after tomorrow.
Truth is a bubble and hard to hold on to.
Children, like God, see only our actions.
In a godless universe, all we have is each other.
What kind of god would create a world in which the means of survival depends on our eating each other?
Wisdom is not making life any harder than it has to be.
Wisdom is knowing when you have enough.
I don't want to be the one who says life is beautiful. I want to be the one who feels it.
Happiness never made anyone rich or famous. That must be why ambitious people avoid it.
If you think happiness is a rare bird you won't see much of it.
Nothing succeeds like indifference to success.
Enjoy the rainbow while it lasts and don't chase it when it's gone.
Happiness: the feeling of being alive.
Happiness is what matters, feeling alive-not art or knowledge or money.
Happiness is my drug of choice.
Be kind. Be happy. Be free.
Life said to me, Be happy. Don't let me down.
Life only wants us to be happy. We impose these burdens on ourselves.
Seekers, what are you seeking? Why aren't you happy just to be alive?
Art is good, but happiness is better.
Days that lift us like a wave, when you feel you could live forever.
The optimist's hope and the pessimist's despair: reciprocal illusions.
We're all drowning, but don't say it out loud.
Everything but a life can be replaced.
When death speaks to me, it speaks only of the beauty of life.
The first kiss and the first glass of wine are the best.
Emotion is the poetry of life.
Poetry is nothing if it exists only in books. One has to find it in one's own life.
