I came into the world a Jew, and although I did not live my life entirely as a Jew, I think it is fitting that I should leave as a Jew. I don't want to turn my back on a great and noble heritage.

Felix Frankfurter

I did not, like my children and people today, grow up with television as part of my life.

Robert Redford

I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

John D. Rockefeller

I was a town child, it is true, but that did not prevent me enjoying open-air life, with plants and animals.

Georg Brandes

The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.

Hugh Walpole, Sr.

I don't believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates.

T.S. Eliot

I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

Joseph Campbell

They can conquer who believe they can. He has not learned the first lesson in life who does not every day surmount a fear.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I don't believe that life is supposed to make you feel good, or make you feel miserable either. Life is just supposed to make you feel.

Gloria Naylor

I look forward to coming back again. I've lost more than I've won in life, so, believe me, I'm pretty much understanding of the situation and I can deal with it. I can deal with adversity.

Mike Tyson

These then are my last words to you. Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.

William James

I believe that its most important function is in the formation of attachment. If we did not suffer enough loss to fear it, we could not love intensely.

Andrew Soloman

I cannot believe that the purpose of life is (merely) to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate. I think it is above all to matter, to count, to stand for something. To have it make some difference that you lived at all.

Leo Rosten

Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.

Chief Seattle

Energy is that amazing feeling that comes to life inside of you when you’re happy and believe in yourself.

Richard Simmons

The animals of the planet are in desperate peril... Without free animal life I believe we will lose the spiritual equivalent of oxygen.

Alice Walker

I believe there are few whose view of life has not been affected by the stern or kindly influences of their early childhood, which threw them in upon themselves in timidity and reserve, or drew them out in genial confidence and sympathy with their fellow creatures.

Basil W. Maturin

I believe that there never was a creator of a philosophical system who did not confess at the end of his life that he had wasted his time. It must be admitted that the inventors of the mechanical arts have been much more useful to men that the inventors of syllogisms. He who imagined a ship towers considerably above him who imagined innate ideas.

Voltaire

For I do not believe God means us thus to divide life into two halves - to wear a grave face on Sunday, and to think it out-of-place to even so much as mention Him on a week-day. Do you think He cares to see only kneeling figures and to hear only tones of prayer - and that He does not also love to see the lambs leaping in the sunlight, and to hear the merry voices of the children, as they roll amoung the hay? Surely their innocent laughter is as sweet in His ears as the grandest anthem that ever rolled up from the "dim religious light" of some solemn cathedral?

Lewis Carroll

There are two ways to slide easily through life; to believe everything or to doubt everything. Both ways save us from thinking.
