It is often said that the best teacher is failure. This is true. But it is also the best killer. May you be lucky enough in failure to live, and unlucky enough in success to struggle.

He sacrifices health to make money. Then money to recuperate health. Then is so anxious about the future, he doesn’t enjoy the present; the result being he doesn’t live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived

Once you’ve got a task to do, it’s better to do it than to live with the fear of it.

“But I, who am old, who have done what I must do, who stands in the daylight facing my own death, the end of all possibility, I know that there is only one power that is real and worth the having. And that is the power, not to take, but to accept.”

“…is one who can do anything. So I thought, once. So did we all. And the truth is that as a man's real power grows and his knowledge widens, ever the way he can follow grows narrower: until at last he chooses nothing, but does only and wholly what he must do...”

The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. (One is unable to notice something because it is always before one's eyes.) The real foundations of his enquiry do not strike a man at all.

One of the principal functions of a friend is to suffer (in a milder and symbolic form) the punishments that we should like, but are unable, to inflict upon our enemies. #huxley

..the ultimate purpose of life, which is to keep alive, is impossible, but this is the ultimate purpose, so great minds struggle to cure diseases so that people may live longer, but only madmen ask why. One lives longer in order that he may live longer. There is no other purpose

the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter — to-morrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. And one fine morning —

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

“I believe that people who are one way on the inside and believe that they need to be another way outside to please others become conflicted and often lose touch with what they really think and feel.”

Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience
