. . . as one goes through life one learns that if you don't paddle your own canoe, you don't move.
Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around.
Life's what's important. Walking, houses, family. Birth and pain and joy - and then death.
Life is very hard, isn't it? It does kill you, after all.
Time is the stuff of which life is made.
Without discipline, there's no life at all.
Life is full of censorship. I cant spit in your eye.
Enemies are so stimulating.
What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate.
Life is hard. After all, it kills you.
I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun.
Plain women know more about men than beautiful women do.
We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself. It's never your fault. But it's always your fault, because if you wanted to change you're the one who has got to change.
The thing about life is that you must survive. Life is going to be difficult, and dreadful things will happen. What you do is move along, get on with it, and be tough. Not in the sense of being mean to others, but being tough with yourself and making a deadly effort not to be defeated.
