Where you live in the United States shouldn't determine how long and how healthy you live - but it does, far more than it should.
How long we live is much more important than how well we live!
A successful life depends less on how long you live than on how much you can pack into the time you have.
In a basic sense, 'A Little Life' is a homage to how my friends and I live our lives. I wanted to push past the definitions of how we typically define friendship. It's a different version of adulthood, but it's no less important and no less legitimate than anyone else's.
The value of life is not in its duration, but in its donation. You are not important because of how long you live, you are important because of how effective you live. And most people are concerned about growing old rather than being effective.
You may not believe in evolution, and that is all right. How we humans came to be the way we are is far less important than how we should act now to get out of the mess we have made for ourselves.
The value of life is not in its duration, but in its donation. You are not important because of how long you live, you are important because of how effective you live.
How you start is important, but it is how you finish that counts. In the race for success, speed is less important than stamina. The sticker outlasts the sprinter.
There are few things it is more important to learn than how to live on little and be therewith content: for the less we need what is without, the more leisure have we to live within.
If the majority of people of a country, no matter how great its natural resources, organize and conspire to get more out and put less in, to do less and get more, how long will, how long can it last?
That's the most important thing, to get along with people. When you feel like you click with them. That's more important even then what their background is or what they've done before, how good they are, how new they are or whatever. All that stuff is really secondary to just getting along with the person.
It's not how long you live, but how you live that's important. Therefore, don't make your life just livable, make it memorable.
A human lifespan is less than a thousand months long. You need to make some time to think how to live it.
How far we travel in life matters far less than those we meet along the way.
With the chronic obesity in America, it's more important than ever to not only feed kids healthy foods but to teach them how to make healthy choices on their own.
How many lives we live in one,
And how much less than one, in all.
