Anton Chekhov on life and death

Lying is the same as alcoholism. Liars prevaricate even on their deathbeds.

A man who doesn’t drink is not, in my opinion, fully a man.

When an actor has money, he doesn’t send letters but telegrams.

Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.

John Lennon1940–1980Double Fantasy (1980), “Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)”

Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.

James Dean1931–1955

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Mahatma Gandhi1869–1948
