In the end, today is forever,...

In the end, today is forever, yesterday is still today, and tomorrow is already today.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

Try as much as possible to be...

Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

Of all the things I love to t...

Of all the things I love to taste, sweetest is the kiss of love.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

I don't have a name and I don...

I don't have a name and I don't have a plot. I have the typewriter and I have white paper and I have me, and that should add up to a novel.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

There is a small area of land...

There is a small area of land in Asia Minor that is called Armenia, but it is not so. It is not Armenia. It is a place. There are only Armenians, and they inhabit the earth, not Armenia, since there is no Armenia. There is no America and there is no England, and no France, and no Italy. There is only the earth.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

Babies who have not yet been ...

Babies who have not yet been taught to speak any language are the only race of the earth, the race of man: all the rest is pretence, what we call civilization, hatred, fear, desire for strength.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

Every man in the world is bet...

Every man in the world is better than someone else and not as good someone else.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

One day in the afternoon of t...

One day in the afternoon of the world, glum death will come and sit in you, and when you get up to walk, you will be as glum as death, but if you're lucky, this will only make the fun better and the love greater.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

You must remember always to g...

You must remember always to give, of everything you have. You must give foolishly even. You must be extravagant. You must give to all who come into your life. Then nothing and no one shall have power to cheat you of anything, for if you give to a thief, he cannot steal from you, and he himself is then no longer a thief. And the more you give, the more you will have to give.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

I am interested in madness. I...

I am interested in madness. I believe it is the biggest thing in the human race, and the most constant. How do you take away from a man his madness without also taking away his identity? Are we sure it is desirable for a man's spirit not to be at war with itself, or that it is better to be serene and ready to go to dinner than to be excited and unwilling to stop for a cup of coffee, even?

William Saroyan 150 quotes

Seek goodness everywhere, and...

Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding-place and let it be free and unashamed. Place in matter and in flesh the least of the values, for these are things that hold death and must pass away. Discover in all things that which shines and is beyond corruption. Encourage virtue in whatever heart it may have been driven into secrecy and sorrow by the shame and terror of the world.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

In the time of your life, liv...

In the time of your life, live—so that in that wondrous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it."

William Saroyan 150 quotes

You may tend to get cancer fr...

You may tend to get cancer from the thing that makes you want to smoke so much, not from the smoking itself.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

The greatest happiness you ca...

The greatest happiness you can have is knowing that you do not necessarily require happiness.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

The basic truth of all things...

The basic truth of all things, as nearly as we may ever dream of determining and knowing this truth, is form, that which is, as it is. The way and shape of the thing no less than the thing itself.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

No enemy is so annoying as on...

No enemy is so annoying as one who was a friend, or still is a friend,and there are many more of these than one would suspect.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

I sometimes think that rich men belong to another nationality entirely, no matter what their actual nationality happens to be. The nationality of the rich.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

In the time of your life, liv...

In the time of your life, live - so that in that good time there shall be no ugliness or death for yourself or for any life your life touches. Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding-place and let it be free and unashamed...In the time of your life, live - so that in that wondrous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it.

A man's ethnic identity has more to do with a personal awareness than with geography.

William Saroyan 150 quotes

You live and die according to...

You live and die according to what goes on in yourself, which no one else can even begin to know, not even father, mother, wife, son, or daughter.
