“Life is too short to waste our precious time with stress and frustration. We should concentrate instead on the many things we have to be grateful for.”
Edie Bailey
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
Lao Tzu
“Life should be like the precious metals, weigh much in little bulk”
Seneca
“Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious than life”
William Shakespeare
“In the entire history of the universe, let alone in your own history, there has never been another day just like today, and there will never be another just like it again. Today is the point to which all your yesterdays have been leading since the hour of your birth. It is the point from which all your tomorrows will proceed until the hour of your death. If you were aware of how precious today is, you could hardly live through it. Unless you are aware of how precious it is, you can hardly be said to be living at all.”
Frederick Buechner
“Each contact with a human being is so rare, so precious, one should preserve it.”
Anais Nin
“But friendship is precious, not only in shade, but in the sunshine of life; and thanks to a benevolent arrangement of things, the greater part of life is sunshine”
Thomas Jefferson
