What is life? What is the secret to life? What does it mean to be alive?

These questions are at the very core of our existence and I, for one, am not about to preach to you about what I personally think life is. But, quotes just happen to be my all time weakness and so I compiled my favorite ones about Life that get me through the day. I hope they will get you through your days too.

"Maybe life isn't about avoiding the bruises. Maybe it's about collecting the scars to prove we showed up for it and won." – Unknown

"Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true." – Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Time decides who you meet in life, your heart decides who you want in your life, and your behavior decides who stays in your life." – Unknown

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." – Dalai Lama

"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." – Confucius

"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away." – William Shakespeare

"Life always offers you a second chance. It's called tomorrow." – Unknown

"We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will." – Chuck Palahniuk

"Beware the barrenness of a busy life." – Socrates

"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all." – Helen Keller

"'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table." – Anna Nalick

"Someone once told me to always live for the little things in life. Live for the five a.m.. sunrises and five p.m. sunsets where you'll see colors in the sky that don't usually belong. Live for road trips and bike rides with music in your ears and the wind in your hair. Live for days when you're surrounded by your favorite people who make you realize that the world is not a cold, harsh place. Live for the little things because they will make you realize that this is what life is about, this is what it means to be alive." – (a.y)

Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life.
