“Can you imagine what it would be like to know that your life was just going to be a series of days that were
all the same, that were do-overs?”

“Would you rather live one perfect day over and over or live your life with no perfect days but just decent ones?”

Jenny Han (1980) American writer

“Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do so with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.”

“She was astonished, and at the same time she knew. There were many things in life like that. You couldn’t imagine it, and then it happened and you couldn’t really imagine it hadn’t.”

“If just once you were depressed for no reason, you have been so all your life without knowing.”

Emil M. Cioran (1911–1995) Romanian philosopher and essayist

“Who do you think I am, girl? If you could pick all the words of the vocabulary that your mother taught you, who do you think I am? And this is only a couple hours, can you imagine what it would be like a couple days with me? I live a hundred years a day.”

Charles Manson (1934–2017) American criminal and musician

“creation took place in a series of six days which were the same as the days of 24 hours we now experience”

James Barr (1924–2006) British bible scholar

“But that’s why I’m here. In this room, all of you, all of us, can do so much more together than any one person can do alone. And I hope that thought bolsters you as much as it does me. I hope the workshops you’ll go to over the next few days give you strength. Because I can only imagine that there are days—when you’ve worked longer hours than your boss realizes or cares about, just to help a kid you know can make it. Days where you feel completely alone. Undermined. Or hopeless.”

Ellen Page (1987) Canadian actress
