“Modern life assaults us with an infinite range of things we could do, we would love to do, or some people tell us we should do. But we are not God and we are neither infinite nor eternal.

'Life is too short to...' eventually shortens to 'life is too short.”
“(it was) beautiful, like so many senseless things.”
“So many things become beautiful when you really look.”
“The shortness of life, so often lamented, may be the best thing about it.”
“She said she usually cried at least once each day not because she was sad, but because the world was so beautiful & life was so short.”
