Top 5 quotes from Henry Miller
"If there is to be any peace it will come through being, not having."
"A man of good will with a little effort and belief in his own powers can enjoy a deep, tranquil, rich life -- provided he go his own way. He need not and should not think of making a good living, but rather of creating a good life for himself. To live one's own life is still the best way of life, always was, and always will be."
"Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such."
"Chaos is the score upon which reality is written."
"The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware."

"As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand."
"The man whose only pleasure in life is making money, weighs less on the moral scale than an angleworm."
"Some folks as they grow older grow wise, but most folks simply grow stubborner."
"How do you know so much about everything? was asked of a very wise and intelligent man; and the answer was 'By never being afraid or ashamed to ask questions as to anything of which I was ignorant."
