Life is given to us,
we earn it by giving it.
~
Let the dead have the immortality of fame,
but the living the immortality of love.
~
Life’s errors cry for the merciful beauty
that can modulate their isolation into a
harmony with the whole.
~
Life, like a child, laughs,
shaking its rattle of death as it runs.
(Rabindranath Tagore)
