All this talk of religion, but it's how you live your life that is the all-important thing.
If you set out each day to do all the goodness and kindness that you can, and to do no harm to man or beast, then you are walking the highest path.
And when your time is up, if you can leave the earth a better place than you found it, then yours will have been a life well lived.
 

Message from the stars:
I stood at eventime. The never-ending plain.
All empty looked and void. Yet, as I gazed again
An army bivouacked. Unnumbered points of light
Bespoke a force Supreme - invincible for right
- Henry Morley
 
Don't spend your precious time asking "Why isn't the world a better place?" It will only be time wasted.
The question to ask is "How can I make it better?" To that there is an answer
- Leo Buscaglia

I have no desire to move mountains, construct monuments or leave behind in my wake material evidence of my existence. But in the final recollection, if the essence of my being has caused a smile to have appeared upon your face or a touch of joy within your heart, then in living I have made my mark
- Thomas L. Odem Jr.
 
What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead
- Nelson Mandela
 
The best remedy for those who are frightened, lonely or unhappy, is to go outside, somewhere where they can be alone; alone with the sky, nature and God. For then and only then can you feel that everything is as it should be and that God wants people to be happy amid beauty's nature and simplicity.
As long as this exists, and that should be for ever, I know that there will be solace for every sorrow, whatever the circumstance.
I firmly believe that nature can bring comfort to all who suffer
- Anne Frank
 
There's so much truth in that, it's meaning is so much deeper than the words. The acquisition of things are important to some people and for some, it is the way they measure success. What is more important is our actions and the love we share with friends and family. That is my interpretation. My mother used to use that quote quite often.
