A large volume of adventures may be grasped within this little span of life, by him who interests his heart in everything. – Laurence Sterne
Alas! if the principles of contentment are not within us, the height of station and worldly grandeur will as soon add a cubit to a mans stature as to his happiness. – Laurence Sterne
People who are always taking care of their health are like misers who are hoarding a treasure which they have never spirit enough to enjoy. – Laurence Sterne
The test of an adventure is that when youre in the middle of it, you say to yourself, Oh, now Ive got myself into an awful mess; I wish I were sitting quietly at home. And the sign that somethings wrong with you is when you sit quietly at home wishing you were out having lots of adventure. – Thornton Wilder
