“This is my one and only life, and it is a great and terrible and short and endless thing, and none of us come out of it alive”

“Life... It's a great and terrible and short and endless thing. None of us come out of it alive.”

“Don't take life too seriously. After all none of us are getting out alive anyway.”

“None of us are getting out of here alive".”

“The only sadnesses that are dangerous and unhealthy are the ones that we carry around in public in order to drown them out with the noise; like diseases that are treated superficially and foolishly, they just withdraw and after a short interval break out again all the more terribly; and gather inside us and are life, are life that is unlived, rejected, lost, life that we can die of.”

“These brass hats have one great advantage in their favor. If we listen to them, and do what they want us to do, none of us will be alive later to tell them that they were wrong.”
