100 Quotes About Life Philosophy

Have you ever considered what you truly want out of life? Have you ever thought about the bigger picture, or the long-term future? Have you ever asked yourself if your life is really what you want it to be? There are lots of amazing quotes about life, but only a few that go deeper than “Be happy.” Life philosophy quotes are frequently used throughout literature and philosophy classes to get students thinking about the bigger picture. This is because they can help people answer some of life’s most important questions, like: What does it mean to be happy? Does life even have a meaning or purpose? How can I get what I want out of this world, and how do I go about doing that?

Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. Louise Erdrich

I wish someone had just told me the truth right up front, as soon as I was old enough to understand it. I wish someone had just said: “Here’s the deal, Wade. You’re something called a ‘human being.’ That’s a really smart kind of animal. Like every other animal on this planet, we’re descended from a single-celled organism that lived millions of years ago. This happened by a process called evolution, and you’ll learn more about it But trust me, that’s really how we all got here. There’s proof of it everywhere, buried in the rocks. That story you heard? About how we were all created by a super-powerful dude named God who lives up in the sky? Total bullshit. The whole God thing is actually an ancient fairy tale that people have been telling one another for thousands of years. We made it all up. Like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. “Oh, and by the way … there’s no Santa Claus or Easter Bunny. Also bullshit. Sorry, kid Deal with it. . Ernest Cline

There’s no such thing as `one, true way’; the only answers worth having are the ones you find for yourself; leave the world better than you found it.

Mercedes Lackey
