Life is like the gezegde

 Life is like the blink of an eye. What is that worth? Nothing. But the eye that blinks - that is something. I guess I blinked, on accident. Sometimes, though, I have found accidents to be the most fortuitous events in my life. You meet the one person who reminds you what you are, what you do, how to be happy.
  Chaim Potok

 one of the fortuitous events, one of the great pieces of luck in my life. His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. one of the fortuitous events, one of the great pieces of luck in my life.
  Woody Allen

 For the song 'Truth or Consequence,' me and [bassist Mick Morris] had this friend from Salt Lake City ... he was a good friend of mine ... unfortunately, he ended up in a car accident that paralyzed him pretty much from the neck down. He also needed a liver transplant. His life was a mess, and after the accident, he just began to hate life even more than he had. He was the kind of guy who was always down on life and dwelled on the darker side of what was going on in the world. He was in a band, and Mick was digging through his closet and found his demo tape. We put it on and it brought back all these memories. This guy wrote about taking his own life, which a lot of people sing about. Usually they don't go through with the act. He did, three years ago. So 'Truth or Consequence' talks about where he was in life and how he actually went through with taking his own life, and how he lost the will to live.

 Basketball is his life. But since the accident, he's a different person. He knows what his friends mean to him. Life means more to him because it was almost taken away.

 If your life, or the life of someone you love, is hanging in the balance, of course you would withstand any amount of abuse to get the job done and to get the life saved. Of course, you have to be convinced that person knows what they're doing. In real life, you have no way of knowing that you're dealing with the best person for the job. It's only on television that you can know that.

 It's a symptom of the commodification of the person. What is it the New Testament says? -- 'You are not your own; you were bought with a price.' Well, in this generation we believe we are our own, and so we can commodify ourselves, we can use ourselves as possessions of ourselves: 'I own myself, it's my body.' And what is more -- 'I own my children, certainly in terms of design and the procreative process. Therefore, I can kill; I can give life. I meet out weal and woe. I'm God.' Taking life and making life become two subsets of the same thing.

 I am more and more convinced that our happiness or our unhappiness depends far more on the way we meet the events of life than on the nature of those events themselves.

 Because I'm everybody's mother, I'm a beloved character. It makes life so sweet for me. No matter where I go people are happy to meet me, so I try to be a nice person. I don't want to disappoint them.

 At the time of the accident, we believe the officer was off-duty, therefore we believe he is liable as well as the city of Fort Worth because he was driving a city of Fort Worth squad car. If you loan your car to anybody, and that person gets in an accident, and you gave them permission to drive it, you're responsible.

 The first person I learned I could make happy with laughter was my mother, whom I idolize. It was a powerful thing to realize. I knew I had found my life's work.
  Ellen DeGeneres

 I worked with the elderly. I found that from the experience of listening to elderly people talk about their lives, you get a different sense about what happens over the course of a person's life. I grew up in a family where there's a real ethic about making your life mean something; do something in your life that helps other people.

 Broadband goes straight to the satellite and it's as quick as you'd ever want to blink. Two blinks and it's there,

 The thing about real life is that important events don’t announce themselves. Trumpets don’t blow, drums don’t beat to let you know you are going to meet the most important person you’ve ever met, or read the most important thing you are ever going to read, or have the most important conversation you are ever going to have, or spend the most important week you are ever going to spend. Usually something that is going to change your whole life is a memory before you can stop and be impressed about it. You don’t usually have a chance to get excited about that sort of thing…ahead of time!

 We are the men of intrinsic value, who can strike our fortunes out of ourselves, whose worth is independent of accidents in life, or revolutions in government: we have heads to get money, and hearts to spend it.
  George Farquhar

 He was a hard-working guy and nice person. I told him, 'Tom, don't worry about what anybody else does. Set your own goals, work at your own pace and be happy.' He did and ended up being very successful. He was a strong person and a good person. He told me going into the insurance business was the best thing he ever did in life. He ended up living very comfortable and lived a good life. He will be missed.
