Oscar Wilde
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde

John Greenleaf Whittier
“Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.”
John Greenleaf Whittier

William Shakespeare
“To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
William Shakespeare, Macbeth

George Eliot
“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
George Eliot

Steve  Martin
“A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.”
Steve Martin
