Dying is easy, it's living that scares me to death.
Everything has been figured out, except how to live.
It's life, man, and life is never easy.
I've always felt like an alien trapped in a human form. We all do at some time or other; for me it's a permanent state, and I'm still unsure if Earth is a penance or a reward.
The experience of life that you and I have is pretty much a jigsaw puzzle in the box: Day-to-day experiences of disconnected pieces that don't seem to justify the efforts we make each day.
The most interesting thing in the world is another human being who wonders, suffers and raises the questions that have bothered him to the last day of his life, knowing he will never get the answers.
The enjoyments of this life are not equal to its evils.
Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression of the state of being human.
You are doomed to make choices. This is life's greatest paradox.
You don't wake up one morning and say, 'Today is going to be a comedy day.' And the next day, 'Today's going to be a drama day.' Things happen in life that are fun and light, and things happen that are heavier. You just have to move your way through life, and I think 'BoJack' is a good reflection of that.
It is not death that kills us, but life. We are done to death by life.
The lyrics are a lot about those big questions: why are we here, how did we get here, what's the point, and what's next. When those questions come up with fans, I would absolutely share with them what has helped me and where I stand on what it is that I believe.
In the real world, it doesn't always go your way like it can on a television show.
Life is a shitstorm, in which art is our only umbrella." (spoken by character in a novel by Mario Vargas Llosa)
Life is like unto a long journey with a heavy burden.
Morality comes with the sad wisdom of age, when the sense of curiosity has withered.
Who knows for what we live, and struggle, and die? Wise men write many books, in words too hard to understand. But this, the purpose of our lives, the end of all our struggle, is beyond all human wisdom.
Everything can't be sweet. Everything can't be peaches and cream.
I don't know how, where, and why the idea for 'Defending Your Life' began; the idea had been bouncing around for a while. Stories like that sort of have to bounce. They don't come out of nowhere. I went through my own period of life with sort of everything turning upside down, and wondering, 'Why is it this way?'
I think life's an irrational obsession.
One must choose in life between boredom and suffering.
Everybody goes up and down throughout their lives.
I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.
Into each life some rain must fall.
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.
