Great post! I love every one of these quotes, but my favorite is the one by Ron Paul. Reminds of Bill Hicks' quote "It's just ride." Remember to enjoy it.
My favorite is the last one, but, then again, I love trees.
One that should come with a caveat, is likening a mind to a garden, well tended or running wild. You should always let one corner of your yard/garden/life/mind run wild. It shouldn't take over the whole thing, but there should be some small piece that's allowed to be wild.
"Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom" Aristotle
