Well, I guess my life is a tragicomedy. Is that by Horace Walpole? Seems familiar. I like "Life is just a chance to grow a soul".

"Life is a series of mishaps" ~Three Musketeers "You must go on with your life, because you are young and it is in front of you." ~The Historian "Sometimes you live more life in an hour than in most weeks, and sometimes it is possible to live more in a few weeks than in all the rest of your life." ~Postcards from No Man's Land "Life offers you a thousand chances...all you have to do is take one." ~Under the Tuscan Sun (movie tagline) "The worth of a life is not determined by a single failure or solitary success." ~The Emperor's Club "However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is nat so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The faultfinder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is." ~Thoreau "In this life there are nothing but possibilities." ~Empire Records "A life without love is no life at all." ~Ever After "When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that's when I think life is over." ~Audrey Hepburn

Lynne Truss on Forrest Gump's life quote: “Life is a like a box of chocolates and if you’re sensible you will avoid the cracknels or anything with a bit of candied peel on top.”
