“We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.”
― Joseph Campbell

“Whether I will live a long time or a short time, I’m alive now, at this moment. What I want is to know that there are other things to hope for besides length of life. What I want to know is that it isn’t necessary to turn away from thoughts of suffering or death but neither is it necessary to give these thoughts too much time and space. What I want is to be intimate with the knowledge that life is temporary. And then, in the light (or shadow) of that knowledge, to know how to live. How to live now.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, Creatures of a Day: And Other Tales of Psychotherapy

“All the hardest, coldest people you meet were once as soft as water. And that's the tragedy of living.”

“The flower bloomed and faded. The sun rose and sank. The lover loved and went. And what the poets said in rhyme, the young translated into practice.”
― Virginia Woolf, Orlando
