Life is a journey that's measured not in miles or years but in experiences, and the route your life takes is built not of roads but of songs.

Life is but an endless series of experiments.

All life is experience, and one level is exchanged for another only when its lesson is learned.

Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.

A man's real education begins after he has left school. True education is gained through the discipline of life.

Life is always uncertain, and common prudence dictates to every man the necessity of settling his temporal concerns, while it is in his power, and while the mind is calm and undisturbed.
