Life 60...

Sometimes it's better to be clueless about what's happening around you, than to know every bit of information that would silently kill you.

The only reason for time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once. -Albert Einstein

Things turn out best for people who make the best out of the way things turn out. -John Wooden

Don't do anything halfway, unless you're willing to be half happy. -How Do You Know

At the time, my life just seemed too complete, and maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves. -Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

Do me a favor… Stand up, walk to wherever the nearest window is, and just look outside. You may not know this, but there’s an entire planets-worth of summers, friends, sunsets, street lamps, songs, late nights, great films, and night skies waiting for you. Your life is as amazing as you want it to be, but first, you have to let it be that way. -Chad Sugg

Such is human psychology that if we don’t express our joy, we soon cease to feel it. -Lin Yutang

He told me that in Greek, nostalgia literally means the pain from an old wound. It’s a twinge in your heart, far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn’t a spaceship, it’s a time machine. Goes backwards, forwards, and takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It’s not called ‘The Wheel,’ it’s called ‘The Carousel.’ It lets us travel the way a child travels, round and around and back home again, to a place where we know we are loved. -Don Draper, Mad Men

Life is complicated. It starts before we’re ready, it continues while we’re still trying to figure out the point of it. And it ends long before we’ve worked out just what to do. -Adrian Tan

When you learn to accept instead of expect, you’ll have fewer disappointments. -Robert Fisher

When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our things were answers like astronaut, president, or in my case, princess… When we were ten, they asked us again. We answered - rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medallist… But now that we’ve grown up, they want a more serious answer. Well, how about this… Who the hell knows? This isn’t a time to make hard and fast decisions. This is the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy because there’s no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… We won’t have to guess. We’ll know. -Eclipse

When things go wrong don’t go with them. -Elvis Presley

You know, after she died everybody told me that I was going to be okay. That it would take a little time but I’d heal. That didn’t really happen. Not really. What you are feeling right now, Amy. It doesn’t ever really go away. Not completely. It’s not like you’re going to, you know, you’re going back to be the person you were like before they died. The person’s gone. It’s more like something inside of you breaks and your body finds a way to compensate for it. Like, if you busted your right hand, you figure out how to use the left one & sure, you might resist for a while because you get pissed off but you have to learn all this stuff again that no one else does. Eventually your body takes over & it figures it out for you & you’re glad. Because if it were up to you, you, you’d just … look at your busted hand forever. Trying to figure out what it was like before. - Everwood

It isn’t the mountains to climb that wear you out, it’s the pebble in your shoe. -Muhammad Ali

The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd; the longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are. -Fernando Pessoa

We are all just one small adjustment away from making our lives work. -How Do You Know

There’s a saying that goes … ‘you don’t know what you have until it’s gone.’ Truth is, you already knew what you had, you just never thought you’d lose it.

In life we all have an unspeakable secret, an irreversible regret, an unreachable dream and an unforgettable love. -Diego Marchi
