“If life were predictable it would cease to be life,and be without flavor”

“If anyone were to ask me what I want out of life I would say- the opportunity for doing something useful, for in no other way, I am convinced, can true happiness be attained.”

“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”

“When you cease to make a contribution, you begin to die.”

“Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.”

“All of life is a constant education.”

“You can never really live anyone else's life, not even your child's. The influence you exert is through your own life, and what you've become yourself.”
