Jerome K. Jerome Life Quotations

One we discover how to appreciate the timeless values in our daily experiences, we can enjoy the best things in life.

Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing.

The advantage of literature over life is that its characters are clearly defined, and act consistently.

Life will always remain a gamble, with prizes sometimes for the imprudent, and blanks so often to the wise.

There are many families where the whole interest of life is centered upon the dog.

A new life begins for us with every second. Let us go forward joyously to meet it. We must press on, whether we will or not, and we shall walk better with our eyes before us than with them ever cast behind.

The facts of life are the impossibilities of fiction.
