"Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death"
- Arthur Schopenhauer
About this Quote
This quote indicates that every day resembles a miniature version of life. Each early morning when we get up is like being born once again, with a brand-new possibility to begin fresh. Each day has plenty of opportunities and experiences, just like the different stages of life. When we go to sleep at night, it's like a little death, as we release the day that has passed and prepare for another day to come.
"My sorrow, when she's here with me, thinks these dark days of autumn rain are beautiful as days can be; she loves the bare, the withered tree; she walks the sodden pasture lane"
"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time"
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
