“Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.” – Helen Keller

“You make a living by what you get; you make a life by what you give.” – Winston Churchill
The money that we earn and the things that we buy make us our living. What we give to others and use to better the world give us a life. A living is something we do to create the life that we want. Neither would be completely available without the other.
