“Life is too short to learn German”
“Is life too short to be taking this shit, or is life too short to be minding it?”
“Life is too short to suffer anybody's meanness, which is what you can learn eating shrimp with store-bought coleslaw, if you look it straight in the face.”
“Life is too short to be little.”
“Life's too short to be a pushover.”
“Life is too short to cower.”
