As miserable as life may be I hold it pretty precious
If you find something precious you have to hold onto it with all your might and never let it go inspite of whatever else you may lose, after all many people die without ever finding that's really precious to them.
Hold tenderly that which you cherish, for it is precious and a tight grip may crush it. Do not let the fear of dropping it cause you to hold it too tightly: the chances are, it's holding you, too.
No, that's what I think God does to you. He gives you some great gig in which you make a whole heap of money, and you're just on top of the world and on every magazine cover, but your personal life is miserable. And for most of that time, I have to say, my personal life was pretty miserable.
I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.
Peace is one of the most precious gifts God has promised His children. I know, because for many years my life was not peaceful, and I was miserable.
One cannot love a world. It is too large. But a fleck of ground so far as his eye can see, one may hold precious above all.
I don't think all life is precious. I know people say that all the time, "Life is precious." I think some life is precious, and some life is just a waste of protoplasm. Start over.
When you're climbing at high altitudes, life can get pretty miserable.
You hold precious what you create for yourself in your life that makes you comfortable.
A woman in a single state may be happy and may be miserable; but most happy, most miserable, these are epithets belonging to a wife.
Freedom can't be bought for nothing. If you hold her precious, you must hold all else of little worth.
You can't let people control your feelings, or you'll live a pretty miserable life trying to change them.
I don't need to be super-ripped all year round. That's a pretty miserable way to live your life.
Throughout life, one does not miss any chance to hold onto the things that are really precious, if one is truly wise.
Achievements are precious and timeless, just like the precious metal platinum. And what better way to celebrate milestones in your life than with precious platinum.
Tomorrow's not promised. You may love someone; you may have a grudge because of something that they did to you, and it was unfair, but life's not fair. Life is very short, so clean up your grudges. Let's not hold them.
