Life is a game

Friedrich Nietzsche - Philosopher

In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.

I have found that remembering what play is all about and making it part of our daily lives are probably the most important factors in being a fulfilled human being. The ability to play is critical not only to being happy, but also to sustaining social relationships and being a creative, innovative person.

William Glasser - American psychiatrist

The day we stop playing will be the day we stop learning.

Like it or not, life is a game.

Joseph Campbell - American professor of literature at Sarah Lawrence College who worked in comparative mythology and comparative religion. His work covers many aspects of the human experience

Life as an art and art as a game––as action for its own sake, without thought of gain or of loss, praise or blame––is the key, then, to the turning of living itself into a yoga, and art into the means to such a life.

Sathya Sai Baba - Indian guru and philanthropist

Life is a challenge, meet it!
Life is a dream, realize it!
Life is a game, play it!
Life is love, enjoy it!
