I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.

What would life be without coffee? But then, what is it even with coffee?

Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossesesing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these.

The meaning of life is that it stops.

Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.

The meaning of life cannot be told; it has to happen to a person ... To speak as though it were an objective knowledge, like the date of the war of 1812, misses the point altogether.

The essence of life is the smile of round female bottoms, under the shadow of cosmic boredom.

That life is worth living is the most necessary of assumptions, and were it not assumed, the most impossible of conclusions.

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.
