"Any idiot can face a crisis – it’s day to day living that wears you out." ― Anton Chekhov Topic(s): Life More From Anton Chekhov "Love, friendship and respect do not unite people as much as a common hatred for something." "We shall find peace. We shall hear angels, we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds." "Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness, and only what is useless is pleasurable." More In Life "The quality of life is more important than life itself."― Alexis Carrel "All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today."― Pope Paul VI "All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name."― Andre Breton
