My goal in life is to unite my avocation with my vocation, As my two eyes make one in sight.

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it

We only live once, since we are given the gift of life it should be our persistent endeavor to immortalize ourselves no matter what field of endeavor we choose.

Life is continued work. It's constant learning. The whole concept of retirement I don't even buy into. We should constantly be working. Maybe not physically working, but we could be spiritually, emotionally working toward bettering ourselves and bettering the lives of others around us.

The life of a nation is the fullness of the measure of its will to live.

The really important thing is not to live, but to live well. And to live well meant, along with more enjoyable things in life, to live according to your principles.
