    Boredom   Office   Long  
    Tom Hodgkinson (2011). “Brave Old World: A Month-by-Month Guide to Husbandry, or the Fine Art of Looking After Yourself”, p.16, Penguin UK

    Past   Men   Littles

    Bethany Hamilton (2004). “Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family, and Fighting to Get Back on the Board”, p.123, Simon and Schuster
  • Living like an empty shell is not really living, no matter how many years it may go on. The heart and flesh of an empty shell give birth to nothing more than the life of an empty shell.

    Haruki Murakami (2007). “Vintage Murakami”, p.161, Vintage
  • It's not that I don't appreciate my life sober, but it's like there are two different people battling inside of me. I want to be good, do good, be a worker among workers, a friend among friends.

  • As if when someone close to us dies, we momentarily trade places with them, in the moment right before. And as we get over it, we’re really living their life in reverse, from death to life, from sickness to health.

    David Levithan (2013). “Every Day”, p.161, Egmont UK
  • Life is all we have, and if we can't look at it honestly, are we really living?

    Carol Plum-Ucci (2005). “The She”, p.102, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
  • Only one person in a thousand knows the trick of really living in the present. Most of us spend fifty-nine minutes an hour living in the past, with regret for lost joys or shame for things badly done (both utterly useless and weakening) or in a future which we either long for or dread. . . . There is only one minute in which you are alive, this minute, here and now. The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle. Which is exactly what it is-a miracle and unrepeatable.

    Regret   Past   Long  
  • I think people who don't have conflict in their lives are just trying to please people and not really living life to the fullest.

  • I don't necessarily view death as something negative. Death gives meaning to life. Living in fear of death is living in denial. Actually, it's not really living at all, because there is no life without death. It's two sides of the one. You can't pick up one side and say, I'm just going to use the 'heads' side. No. It doesn't work like that. You have to pick up both sides because nothing is promised to anyone in this world besides death.

  • You can't go on like you're going to start really living one day like all this is some preamble to some great life thats magically going to appear. I'm a firm believer that you have to create your own miracles, don't hold out that there's something better waiting on the other side. It doesn't work that way. When you're gone, you're gone. Don't wait.

    Perry Moore (2007). “Hero”, Disney-Hyperion
  • When your characters are really living they tell you what they do.

  • You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.

  • Every player should be accorded the privilege of at least one season with the Chicago Cubs. That's baseball as it should be played - in God's own sunshine. And that's really living.

  • What we are really living for is the experience of life, both the pain and the pleasure.

  • I don't take so-called "vacations" often. In fact vacations are more stressful than the lives my wife and I worked hard to set up for ourselves in New York. It seems like being on vacation is like normal living, which is not very satisfying. It means we're figuring out what to make for lunch today, and that seems like such an absurd way to live. The issue of dealing with that doesn't seem to be so prominent back home. It sounds so silly and ridiculous, but it's really the way it is. We love what we do, so I prefer being in the studio; that's really living for me.

  • If you're not living I mean really living, you're dead already.

  • If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living.

  • I want to stress again the importance of really living what we claim to believe. That needs to be a priority-not just in our personal and family lives but in our churches, our political choices, our business dealings, our treatment of the poor; in other words, in everything we do.

  • When you're not goal-striving, not looking forward, you're not really living.

    Maxwell Maltz (1989). “Psycho-Cybernetics”, p.114, Simon and Schuster
  • We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

  • We think we're living in the present, but we're really living in the past.

  • it is when you are really living in the present-working, thinking, lost, absorbed in something you care about very much, that you are living spiritually.

    Brenda Ueland (2013). “If You Want to Write”, p.44, Simon and Schuster
