Evening Wisdom, Thoughts and Beauty



Our care should not be to have lived long as to have lived enough.
Seneca



Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
Soren Kierkegaard



Life can be found only in the present moment. The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.
Thich Nhat Hanh



Life is like a sewer. What you get out of it depends on what you put into it.
Tom Lehrer



We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
Winston Churchill
