Vaclav Havel
Czechoslovakian - Leader
Born: October 5, 1936

A fact was the hard outer cover of meaning, and meaning was the soft living stuff inside a fact. Fact and meaning were the driving cogs of living. If the gear of fact drove the gear of meaning, then they revolved in opposite directions, but put the gear of fantasy between the two and they both revolved in the same direction. Fantasy was and is important; it leads to heaven knows where, but follow it and see. Sometimes it pays off.

Fynn

Sometimes we are given exactly what we need. The precise people that you need the most come stumbling into your life. Sometimes you don't notice, and this is very sad. Sometimes you lose them again. This is sad too, but not as sad. Because what you have once had together you have forever.

Linda Olsson

People wonder why there seems to be no meaning in life. Meaning does not exist a priori. There is no meaning existing in life; one has to create it. Only if you create it will you discover it. It has to be invented first. It is not lying there like a rock, it has to be created like a song. It is not a thing, it is significance that you bring through your consciousness.

Rajneesh

Sometimes we get sad about things and we don't like to tell other people that we are sad about them. We like to keep it a secret. Or sometimes, we are sad but we really don't know why we are sad, so we say we aren't sad but we really are.

Mark Haddon

The meaning of life consists in the fact that it makes no sense to say that life has no meaning.

Niels Bohr

Sometimes the best course in the search for the meaning of life is to busy yourself until you forget that you don't know the meaning of life

Amanda Hocking

59% of all suicides are actually botched murder-suicides performed by dyslexics.

Dana Gould

It would be a sad day if we British stopped being cynical, but you sometimes wonder whether we overdo it.

Boris Johnson

What do you do when you don't know what to do? No wonder there are more suicides among psychiatrists than in any other profession.

R. D. Laing

Life is sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're sad, sometimes you're in love, sometimes you fight, and that's a life.

David Cage

Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.

Henry Miller

Yes, I am sad, sad as a circus-lioness, sad as an eagle without wings, sad as a violin with only one string and that one broken, sad as a woman who is growing old. Sad, sad, sad.

Jean Rhys

When you wonder about the mystery of yourself, look to Christ, who gives you the meaning of life. When you wonder what it means to be a mature person, look to Christ, who is the fulfillness of humanity. And when you wonder about your role in the future of the world look to Christ.

Pope John Paul II

There have been a lot of murders and suicides in my family; it's like the primary cause of death. I wonder if there's a certain energy that attracts that.

Rose McGowan

To feel the meaning of what one is doing, and to rejoice in that meaning; to unite in one concurrent fact the unfolding of the inner life and the ordered development of material conditions--that is art.

John Dewey

Of course, you decide which story you want to tell. For me, it's been very authentic, so sometimes I'm super happy, and I post four pictures one after the other; sometimes I'm busy, and I don't. Sometimes I'm sad, and I post a sad picture.
