Keep blasting because life is such that sometimes it is nice and

AUTHOR BIO

Maxime Lagacé started collecting quotes in 2004 after he lost his girlfriend
in a car accident.
In search of meaning, he dived in the self-improvement world, psychology
and trail running. His goal was to understand his pain, his depression, his
fears, his lack of motivation and inspiration.
Books, blogs, quotes and nature became his guide.
He finished his software engineering degree in 2007 at the École de
Technologie Supérieure de Montréal. He also studied at the The Hong Kong
Polytechnic University. A few years later, he started his first website to share
his passion for quotes.
Maxime is a father of two and also loves running. His best 5k is 17 minutes
41 seconds and his best marathon (42k) is in 3 hours 33 minutes 11 seconds
(with 1800 meters of elevation gain).
Other notable interests of Maxime are health (mental and physical),
meditation, nutrition, bananas, human potential, education, learning,
productivity and minimalism.

Sorry. The quote, “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened”, is
not by Dr Seuss (first ascribed to him in 2002). It can be attributed to German

This is an incredibly great article. You are right that we always live in the

Thanks for the nice post – which reminds you once again to be mindful and
to enjoy the present moment.

9. VIC SAYS:
Elizabeth Kenny’s saying about a lion and a sheep is not original…it should
be attributed to Mussolini. Granted she changed it slightly, but still is not her
original thought. Here’s Mussolini’s translated quote, “If I advance; follow
me. If I retreat; kill me. If I die; avenge me! It is better to live one day as a
lion than one-hundred years as a sheep!”
REPLY
1. MAXIME SAYS:
Oh, thanks for pointing this out, Vic.
By the way, I also found a Tibetan proverb that says: “It is better to live
one day as a lion than to live 1000 years as a sheep.”
I found this one

There’s also another version: “It is better to be a tiger for one day than a
sheep for a thousand years.”

29. DAVID MACKLIN SAYS:
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the quotations which you have compiled
which must have taken long hours of dedicated research.
Here are a few of my own thoughts:-
Life is a constant round of making decisions and then living with the
consequences.
The miracle of your birth and the luck of your survival should give you
enough reason to celebrate your life.
Life is that unfathomable mystery between birth and death and what you do
with it is largely governed by luck.
REPLY
1. MAXIME SAYS:
Hi David,
happy to see you liked it.
Yes, it normally takes around 8-10 hours to produce one article like this.
It’s a lot of work, but I have so much fun finding those inspiring quotes.
It’s totally worth it.
Also, those quotes of yours are great!
I particularly like your first one and I think people (myself included)
should “apply” it: think a little bit less and act more.
This is how we learn. This is how we grow.
Thanks,
Maxime
30. CAROLINE BAZA SAYS:
Nice quotes for life. It’s really true! Here, I can suggest another quote about

Hi, Maxime, I so enjoyed your article …
Here is my Quote for Success after reading and listening to many books on
the subject;
Success comes from within, define and understand your own meaning and
reasons for success, before starting the journey.
REPLY
1. MAXIME SAYS:
Thanks, Roy, for your kind words.
It’s true that the definition of success MUST come from within.
Sadly, nowadays, most people think of success as fame, big houses, cars,
money, etc.
We must come back to real success: being content, helping others, trying
making an impact and improve the world.
Thanks,
Maxime

Maxime, I can’t remember the exact quote but it’s like; “I want people to be
happier when I leave them than when I met them”. Or, something like that.
Can you help ???

1. MAXIME LAGACÉ SAYS:
Hi Bob,
there is this one from Marvin J. Ashton: “Leave people better than you
found them.”
Is that it?
Thanks,
Maxime

“Be where you are “. My quote to my kids

1. MAXIME LAGACÉ SAYS:
It’s indeed a great one, Rocky.
It’s funny because it’s a mantra (or self-talk) I use myself from time to
time.

Very effective indeed.


Best,
Maxime
