Life Sayings

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away.

A brook would lose its song,
If God removed the rocks.

Live that you wouldn't be ashamed
to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.
Will Rogers

Life's a journey, not a destination.
The Beatles

Today is just a day fading into another.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak,
but their echoes are truly endless.
Mother Teresa

The beauty of tomorrow is that you have today to create it.

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
John Lennon

You have a new chance to impress the world every 24 hours.
Use it wisely.

If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say?
And, why are you waiting?
Stephen Levine

You may search my time-worn face,
You'll find a merry eye that twinkles,
I am NOT an old lady,
Just a little girl with wrinkles!
Edythe E. Bregnard

Life is not a spectator sport.
Reebok

The older we get the younger old is.
Meg Ivan

Kind hearts, the garden
Kind thoughts, the root
Kind words, the blossoms
Kind deeds, the fruit.

Keep your face to the sunshine, and you cannot see the shadows.

The road is always shorter when two people walk it.

What if the Hokey-Pokey is REALLY what it's all about?

Life in yards is hard.
Life by the inch is a cinch.

Nostalgia...a thing that means nothing to us in our youth,
but which we chase madly in our later years...
in a search for a lost childhood!
Mary E. Newton

You see things and you say Why?
But I dream things that never were; and I say Why not?
Shaw

May your day be filled with blessings
Like the sun that lights the sky,
And may you always have the courage
To spread your wings and fly.

The memories of tomorrow depend on your attitude today.

You never have a second chance,
to make a first good impression.

Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

Be not afraid of growing slowly,
be afraid only of standing still.

The best way to get even is to forget.

Some folks wear their halos much too tight.

A skeptic is a person who, when he sees the handwriting on the wall, claims it's a forgery.

It isn't difficult to make a mountain out of a molehill,
just add a little dirt.

The mighty oak tree was once a little nut that held it's ground.

Smile and see what happens.

Yesterday is gone; forget it.
Tomorrow has not come; don't worry.
Today is here - make it count!

When you get muck slung at you - your hands will be
cleaner if you don't sling it back!
Kay Adams-Reid

Life's like a boom-a-rang.
The more good you throw out, the more you receive in return.
Josh S. Hinds

Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, and faith looks UP.

The greatest gift that you can give yourself
is a little bit of your own attention.
Anthony J. D'Angelo

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is bliss, taste it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.
Mother Teresa

You have to love life to live it and vice versa.

There are two things to aim at in life;
first to get what you want; and after that,
to enjoy it.
Login Pearsall Smith

Nobody can be exactly like me.
Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.
Tallulah Bankhead

Life is no brief candle to me.
It is sort of a splendid torch that I have got hold of for the moment.
George Bernard Shaw

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle.
I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.
Mother Teresa

To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.

My motto is 'contented with little, yet wishing for more'.
Charles Lamb

A journey begins with a single step.

Have patience with all things, but cheerfully have patience with yourself.
St. Francis de Sales

Our minds need relaxation, and give way,
unless we mix with work a little play.
Moliere

Have the courage to live. Anyone can clean.

If you obey all the rules ALL of the time,
you'll miss most of the fun.
Katharine Hepburn

On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key.

Make your words sweet because some day you may have to eat them.
