He who is outside his door has the hardest part of his journey behind him.

Dutch proverb

Life is too important to be taken seriously.

Oscar Wilde

Cheese, wine, and friends must be old to be good.

Cuban Proverb

Things that were hard to bear are sweet to remember.

Seneca

The secret of my influence has always been that it remained secret.

Salvador Dalí

The past is gone, never to come back. Whatever you did or could not do is history; you cannot go back in time to do or undo it. Brooding on the past is futile, so is being anxious about future. Focus on what you can do in the present because the present is creating your future.

The Ancient Sage
