PHILOSOPHY

Quotes that I like:

The question is not what can I expect from life...it's more about what you can expect from yourself.

"So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." Mark Twain

We are all going to die,
All of us,
What a circus!
That alone should make us love each other
But it doesn`t.
We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities,
We are eaten up by nothing.
Charles Bukowski
