Not life in general but the last five minutes, really.

If a door does not have locks, masturbation would lean towards the "STUPIDEST IDEA EVER". Especially at daytime.

Actually, I'll go with masturbation is the worst thing man has created.

I'll take dying of loneliness over embarrassment or uncomfortable silences over dinner, thanks.

I have learned that a clever fighter is one who not only wins, but excels at winning with ease.

And that the best way to win is to make no mistakes. Making no mistakes is what establishes the certainty of victory.

Thus it is a skilful fighter who puts himself in a position which makes defeat impossible.

I am 19 and I have learned that just because one thing fits into a hole doesnt mean that its the ONLY thing that will fit into the hole, this is to be interpreted in your own way... of course the way you interpret it applies to you, enjoy! :D

Life has taught me that important stuff like pencils and erasers tend to get lost for no reason.

Damn you pencils and erasers.

Life's a *****, then you die.
This was my mindset when I was 17; has changed very little now that I'm 32.

I've learned that even when life seems perfect, it can all change completely in a heartbeat. What can be given to you can just as easily be taken away. And no matter how much trust you put in someone, they're still only human and are not to be trusted.

And yet, even learning all this, I still live life following my heart, not my head. Glutton for punishment.

Nothing quite like reading Sun Tzu's Art of War is there.

Sun Tzu then used all of his fighting money to buy two of every animal, then he rounded them all up on a boat and beat the crap out of every one of them.

When it comes to learning about life? No, I don't think I've read any more inspirational item of literature.

At 17, I learned that adults never listen, they just love to hear themselves talk and think nothing of others opinions

Life can be really shit at times, 'but the sweet isnt as sweet without the sour'


And yes i did steal that from Vanilla sky, but it is an amazing quote.
