As you quoted "“Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act.” -Paulo Coelho",
what I think can be interpreted as paraphrasing Henri Cartier Bresson, I decided to
create one: Life is time given to you to be blamed on or for you to blame yourself. So go ahead and prove they're wrong. Or else. (Otto Bastos, myself).

At 72, with diabetes, a triple bypass, increased blood pressure as well as a few other trivial things, I think that this one applies to me. From Big and Rich, the country duo...

I'll live this life untill this life won't let me live it anymore.

John Lennon was more famed for his acerbic thoughts like saying "time wounds all heels" when his deportation struggle was finally won, but he had a really nice, succinct, appraisal of life: "life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
