Life's true value and meaning can only be known if we speak for the truth, not for our advocacy, but for the truth itself.

Kasey Collin P. Dumdum

Air, an undervalued necessity, that earns your gratitude when you inhale it for the last time

Shaun Neil King

People have seen that I intend to sweep away everything we have been taught to consider - without question - as grace and beauty; but have overlooked my work to substitute a vaster beauty, touching all objects and beings, not excluding the most despised - and because of that, all the more exhilarating.... I would like people to look at my work as an enterprise for the rehabilitation of scorned values, and, in any case, make no mistake, a work of ardent celebration.... I am convinced that any table can be for each of us a landscape as inexhaustible as the whole Andes range... I am struck by the high value, for a man, of a simple permanent fact, like the miserable vista on which the window of his room opens daily, that comes, with the passing of time, to have an important role in his life. I often think that the highest destination at which a work of art can aim is to take on that function in someone's life.

Jean Dubuffet

You have to know the value of nothing before the value of something

Armin Houman

You don't need a reason to add value to somebody's life. Nor do you need to get anything back from them. You add value because it's who you are.

Sunday Adelaja

Keep in mind that it is one life we are given to live. One life in which we can create beautiful memories and dream, magnificent dreams. So create without boundaries, give life to your dreams; don't allow yourself to be dismayed by others or situations. Realize your own greatness, value yourself. Value the life given to you and hold fast to your own precious ideals and self worth.

Gerald Mills

The things we place greatest value upon are prioritised by their context in our lives.

Fennel Hudson

Everything of value doesn't come with a price tag.

Shefali Batra

Most people do not take care of their lives, because they don’t value life

Sunday Adelaja

Sunday Adelaja

Is it OK to say, "these are the things that I value. This is what I'm going to pursue in life"?

Larissa MacFarquhar

The truth is not simply visible to the naked eyes, not any more. When people believe so much in media reports, history itself may conceal the truth only the chosen ones can see.

Aishah Madadiy

Journalism is not like fiction and will never be. In fiction, you can feed people with lies, yet at the end of the reading, people still live the same life - go to work, eat, come back home, and sleep - nothing really changes aside from, at the very least, their perception of the world. But, things are different in journalism. You tell people a barefaced life, they will believe it, and something is going to happen. People will promptly respond to what they believe is true because it relates to their life, and we take life seriously, don't we?

Aishah Madadiy

The value of time is only equal to the value of life.

Sunday Adelaja

Robin Sloan

Life will always have the value that you give it.

Steven Redhead

The cost of life is simply the value that was extracted from the time available.

Steven Redhead

People die all the time. Life is a lot more fragile than we think. So you should treat others in a way that leaves no regrets. Fairly, and if possible, sincerely. It's too easy not to make the effort, then weep and wring your hands after the person dies. Personally, I don't buy it."Yuki leaned against the car door. "But that's real hard, isn't it?" she said."Real hard," I said. "But it's worth trying for.

Haruki Murakami

Yes, I know everything can disappear in a flash of light. That doesn’t make anything less valuable.

Kamila Shamsie

If a man realizes who he is, he is aware of his value

Sunday Adelaja

We are blessed when our loved ones know what they have long before they lose us. It’s the same with people. If they are taken for granted long enough, they can be oppressed to the point that they never experience the joys of life. Life on earth becomes a disappointment for them and Heaven becomes their goal. On the other hand, if they are loved and encouraged and appreciated, they will find all kinds of reasons to keep on living! It is never too late to help someone to see that they are valuable and wanted upon the earth.

Kate McGahan

Everyone leaves behind a legacy of some kind, but those who approach living with a ‘No Excuses’ mindset leave a legacy of value.

J.R. Rim

Everything that I hold will eventually be gone. Subsequently, the quality of my life will depend on whether I choose to appreciate those things ‘now’ or wait until ‘then.

Craig D. Lounsbrough

Of two hearts one is always warm and one is always cold: the cold heart is more precious than diamonds: the warm heart has no value and is thrown away.

Graham Greene

Well-meaning, helpful, good-natured attitudes of mind have not come to be honored on account of their usefulness, but because they are states of richer souls that are capable of bestowing and have their value in the feeling of the plenitude of life.

Friedrich Nietzsche

If life — the craving for which is the very essence of our being — were possessed of any positive intrinsic value, there would be no such thing as boredom at all: mere existence would satisfy us in itself, and we should want for nothing.

Arthur Schopenhauer

And who's to say that just because something lasts only a short time, it has little value?

Alice Steinbach

Never live your life on the edge when you have loved ones who love you and who are depending on you.

Paul Nat

Differ though we might with Christianity's view of what precisely our souls need, it is hard to discredit the provocative underlying thesis, which seems no less relevant in the secular realm than in the religious one--that we have within us a precious, childlike, vulnerable core which we should nourish and nurture on its turbulent journey through life.

Alain de Botton

How you can argue with those who whip, stone and murder people because they wanted to live their life?

M.F. Moonzajer

I'm an atheist, and I don't have any belief in an afterlife. You could say that I'm resigned to the fact that this wonderful life that we get here is it. And having hit 60, it's a good time to get resigned to these things and not be too nervous or upset - and enjoy what great times one can have.

David Gilmour

It’s a strange myth that atheists have nothing to live for. It’s the opposite. We have nothing to die for. We have everything to live for.

Ricky Gervais

For the first time (but how long will it take us to acknowledge this?) in the history of ideas, a philosopher had dedicated a whole book to the question of atheism. He professed it, demonstrated it, arguing and quoting, sharing his reading and his reflections, and seeking confirmation from his own observations of the everyday world. His title sets it out clearly: Memoir of the Thoughts and Feelings of Jean Meslier; and so does his subtitle: Clear and Evident Demonstrations of the Vanity and Falsity of All the Religions of the World. The book appeared in 1729, after his death. Meslier had spent the greater part of his life working on it. The history of true atheism had begun.

Michel Onfray

There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else (parents in the case of children, God in the case of adults) has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point.

Richard Dawkins

There is nothing new under the sun but that of the Son. Man's rebellion against God has always been because he would rather fall in pride than rise in humility.

Criss Jami

It means that your birth, with all your particulars, is a wildly improbable event, and hence precious. You won the sweepstakes by being born at all. Think of all the wallflower sperm and egg cells. You made it, buddy. Whew! What a staggering wonder! What a thing to rejoice in! The lottery wasn't fixed! God didn't rig it! You won fair and square! What a miracle!

Robert M. Price

The emotions attached to them were like sand castles in the tide, slowly washing out to sea.

Nicholas Sparks

I have been using art as a means to the emotions of life and reading into it the ideas of life.

Clive Bell

Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.

Charlotte Brontë

You are not your emotions and they are not who you are, only how you feel at the moment.

Toni Sorenson

I suspect that for a good deal of the time you live in a sort of glass case, not knowing real enthusiasm or genuine emotion; or feeling them perhaps at second hand, feeling them sometimes because you think you ought to, not because you really do.

Winston Graham

Focusing on the past is only a barricade to the future. Once you overcome that barricade, the possibilities are endless.

Brandon Cella

Humankind has not learned about balance, let alone practiced it. It is guided by greed and ambition, steered by fear. In this way it will eventually destroy itself. But nature will survive; at least the plants will.

Brian L. Weiss

A face whose emotions had not yet been battered by experience.

Jojo Moyes

One half of me is a hopeless romantic. The other half is well... just realistic.

Faraaz Kazi

It is a mere cowardice to seek safety in negations. No character becomes strong in that way. You will be thrown into the world some day and then every rational satisfaction your nature that you deny now will assault like a savage appetite.

George Eliot

Life is like a rushing river. If we fight the current we are drawn under and drown in emotion.

Ambika Devi

Some people go through the heavy stuff. They fight in wars. They're in jail. They start a business and it gets shut down by gangsters. They end up hustling their ass in a foreign country. It's one long list of setbacks and humiliations. But it doesn't touch them, not really. They're having an adventure. It's like: What's next? And then there's other people who are just trying to live quietly, they stay out of trouble, they're maybe ten years old, or fourteen, and one Friday morning at 9:35 something happens to them, something private, something that breaks their heart. Forever.

Michel Faber

Don't cry about it. Write about it.
