I always try to live my life by the motto 'No Regrets', as Mark Twain said 'Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didnt do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.'
A few of my favourite quotes are below:
'Its not how far you travel but how well'
'Life is not measured by the amount of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away'
'Its a dangerous business, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you dont keep your feet, theres no telling where you might be swept off to'
'Too many times we stand aside and let the waters slip away, 'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today. So don't you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied, choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide'
'I wake up and French kiss the morning'
'Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain'
'If Life hands you a Lemon, make Lemonade'
'You don't stop playing because you get old, you get old because you stop playing'
'The Best is yet to come'
'Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter'
‘To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted’
‘Not all those who wander are lost’
‘When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable’
‘Good days are to be gathered like sunshine in grapes, to be trodden and bottled into wine and kept to age, to sip at ease beside the fire. If the traveller has vintaged well, he needs to wander no longer, the ruby moments glow in his glass at will’
'Friends are the fruitcake of life - Some are sweet, some are nutty, some are even soaked in alcohol but they are all my friends'
'No Regrets'
'Life is like a round of golf. You will hit bunkers along the way but with determination, focus and the support of family and good friends, we will all get to the 19th hole'
'Live every moment, Laugh every day, Love beyond words'
'Theres a higher force that knows the way out of the matrix'
'All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing'
'Say what you mean and mean what you say'
'Ignorance is bliss but Knowledge is power'
'It's better to try and fail than fail to try'
'Don't Settle'
'Once a person gets a grip on life and death, then they fully understand both. For example, you had how many birthdays? Well I know you had one birthday. You were born on a certain day, you had no more birthday's after that. So, I dont celebrate birthdays, so that stops me from counting days, which stops me from counting time, which allows me to still look the same as I did ten years ago'
'Fortune favours the Brave'
'Fall in Love, Not in line'
'Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter'
'Be not inhospitable to strangers lest they be angels in disguise'
'Life is for living, she teaches me that. If I wanted an owner, I would've chosen a cat'
'Don't make me do my Kung-Fu on you baby'
'I ain't got time to bleed'
'Ive fired a few shots'
'Casting a line into the water is like asking a question. Something could be right underneath you, but you can't see it: it's there but not there. And sometimes only a line will make it real'
'Just because you're breathing doesn't mean you're alive'
'The people in our lives who leave the best and longest-lasting impression tend to have one particular trait in common: the ability to state aloud what we all have locked away in our secret hearts, to bring it out into the light and to communicate it in a way that seems natural, straightforward and clear. This is the way one changes the world for the better - not by coercion, cajolement or the manipulative technique of lies, but by reacquainting humans with the concept of common sense, to awaken someone to who they truly are: not victims, not slaves, but sovereign souls who have allowed themselves to fall into the trap of trusting others to fix the world for them'
'Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons'
'Don't you put words in my mouth, like you put artificial facts in your head'
'Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons'
'Behaviour breeds behaviour'
'He who gives up liberty for temporary security deserves neither and shall lose both'
'Get busy living or get busy dieing. Thats damn right'
'Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies'
'Style matters. But Substance matters more'
