Wait For Life To Happen

Many people die with their music still in them. Why is that so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out. – Oliver Wendell Holmes

I couldn’t wait for success, so I went ahead without it. – Jonathan Winters


It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn’t give it up because by that time I was too famous – Robert Benchley
Miserable people are waiting for the world to make them happy. They think there’s something wrong if people and things and circumstances aren’t going to great lengths to ensure their happiness. But happy people know that the responsibility for being happy is on their own shoulders. They understand the old Chinese proverb, “He who waits for roast duck to fly into mouth must wait a very long time.” If you want life to give you a roast duck, or even a small order of fries, remember: You’ve got to go out and get it! Happiness doesn’t deliver.
