“Life is a series of surprises and would not be worth taking or keeping if it were not.”
“There are always surprises. Life may be inveterately grim and the surprises disproportionately unpleasant, but it would be hardly worth living if there were no exceptions, no sunny days, no acts of random kindness.”
“Life is a series of calculated risks, James. I happen to think that this one is worth it.”
“Take life one step at a time, and you will find that some steps were worth taking,”
“Of little worth as life is when we misuse it, it is worth that effort. It would cost nothing to lay down if it were not.”
“Can you imagine what it would be like to know that your life was just going to be a series of days that were all the same, that were do-overs?”
