But not only medicine, engineering, and painting are arts; living itself is an art in fact, the most important and at the same time the most difficult and complex art to be practiced by man.
Quote by -Erich Fromm
Independent of others and in concert with others, your main task in life is to do what you can best do and become what you can potentially be.
Quote by -Erich Fromm
All we can do in life is push through the things that make us afraid and try to be better.
Quote by -Ari Graynor
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
Quote by -Meister Eckhart
There is no stopping place in this life -- nor is there ever one for any man, no matter how far along his way he's gone.
Quote by -Meister Eckhart
If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, "thank you," that would suffice.
Quote by -Meister Eckhart
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is 'thank you', it will be enough.
Quote by -Meister Eckhart
There is no stopping place in this life--nor is there ever one for any person, no matter how far along the way one's gone.
Quote by -Meister Eckhart
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
If you notice phrases, ideas, and anecdotes that closely resemble those that appear elsewhere in my writing, it's not a matter of sloppy editing. I'm repeating myself. I'm reshuffling words in the hope that just once I might say something exactly right. And I'm still wrestling with dilemmas that are not easily resolved or easily dismissed. I run at them again and again because I am not finished with them. Any may never be. Work-in- progress on a life-in-progress is what my writing is about. And some progress in the work is enough to keep it going on.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Doing a straight-forward, clear-cut task that has a beginning and an end balances out the complexity-without-end that often vexes the rest of my life. Sacred simplicity.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Love the battle between chaos and imagination. Remember: Acting is living truthfully in imaginary circumstances. Remember: Acting is the way to live the greatest number of lives. Remember: Acting is the same as real life, lived intentionally. Never forget: The Fruit is out on the end of the limb. Go there.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Life is. I am. Anything might happen. And I believe I may invest my life with meaning. The uncertainty is a blessing in disguise. If I were absolutely certain about all things, I would spend my life in anxious misery, fearful of losing my way. But since everything and anything are always possible, the miraculous is always nearby and wonders shall never, ever cease.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love.
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Making a living and having a life are not the same thing. Making a living and making a life that's worthwhile are not the same thing. Living the good life and living a good life are not the same thing. A job title doesn't even come close to answering the question. "What do you do?".
Quote by -Robert Fulghum
Why do people have to be this lonely? What's the point of it all? Millions of people in this world, all of them yearning, looking to others to satisfy them, yet isolating themselves. Why? Was the earth put here just to nourish human loneliness?
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
What we needed were not words and promises but a steady accumulation of small realities.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Time weighs down on you like an old, ambiguous dream. You keep on moving, trying to sleep through it. But even if you go to the ends of the earth, you won't be able to escape it. Still, you have to go there- to the edge of the world. There's something you can't do unless you get there.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
I always feel like I'm struggling to become someone else. Like I'm trying to find a new place, grab hold of a new life, a new personality. I guess it's part of growing up; it's also an attempt to reinvent myself.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
two people can sleep in the same bed and still be alone when they close their eyes
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Why do I act like this, agreeing when I really disagree, letting people force me to do things I don't want to do?
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
If you can’t understand it without an explanation, you can’t understand it with an explanation.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Life is not like water. Things in life don't necessarily flow over the shortest possible route.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
You can keep as quiet as you like, but one of these days somebody is going to find you.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
As time goes on, you'll understand. What lasts, lasts; what doesn't, doesn't. Time solves most things. And what time can't solve, you have to solve yourself.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Spend your money on the things money can buy. Spend your time on the things money can’t buy.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Despite your best efforts, people are going to be hurt when it's time for them to be hurt.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That’s part of what it means to be alive.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
The most important thing we learn at school is the fact that the most important things can't be learned at school.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
No matter what they wish for, no matter how far they go, people can never be anything but themselves. That's all.
Quote by -Haruki Murakami
