Been reading Tuesdays with Morrie' by Mitch Albom. It's about the life lessons a Professor passed on to his student (Mitch) just before he passed away.

It's a very quote-worthy book I would feel... and one of my favourite quote:

'So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing something they think is important. This is because they are chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning. '

and another one here on the 'Tension of Opposites'

Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing , but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you shouldn't take anything for granted.
