This phrase summarizes what I think about life quite well. It is a combination of several books I've read, the thoughts of some people and my own experience. "Do it all, do everything you can, experience everything. Because I can tell you, that it will end soon enough. Everything does. From pain to opportunities." It basically means that life is short. You can't avoid suffering, but you can choose to enjoy happiness even if it might hurt you in the future. And, when you're down, you can use it to remember that everything ends, so if you feel you can't do anything else to soothe your pain, just think that it will end and you just need the strength to work through it.
