As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live
They that have lived a single day have lived an age
I would live to study, and not study to live
My trade and art is to live
The part of life which we really live is short
To live is not a blessing, but to live well
It is a tedious thing to be always beginning life; they live badly who always begin to live
You must live for another if you wish to live for yourself
As long as you live, keep learning how to live
As high as we have mounted in delight,
In our dejection do we sink as low.
