“We can't live our lives according to what might have been. We have to live by what is.”

“I can't believe that we would lie in our gravesWondering if we hadspent our living days wellI can't believe that we would lie in our gravesDreaming of things that we might have been”

“We have lived our lives by the assumption that what was good for us would be good for the world. We have been wrong. We must change our lives so that it will be possible to live by the contrary assumption, that what is good for the world will be good for us. And that requires that we make the effort to know the world and learn what is good for it.”

“I think the truth to living fully is to appreciate what we have, day by day, regardless of what we know might come our way.”

“We each have our lives... What matters is not how long those lives last, but what we do with them.”

“We can't live our lives obsessing about the past or mourning the future. We have a responsibility to ourselves and to each other to live every moment of our lives the best we can.”
