Jayapataka Swami
The Lord comes in a different form or partial form in order to deliver his devotees and generally he is always telling us how to surrender and how to serve him. If one directly serves the Lord with no condition, unconditionally "I am serving you Lord for Your pleasure, I want me to do what you want me to do". If we do things in that way the amazing thing is that the Lord becomes very pleased with us. The Supreme Lord has given us everything, what can we do for him? When we appreciate how great he is and feel grateful, that is the beginning of pure devotion. Pure devotion should be the goal of our life.
Bhakti Vikas Swami
The ultimate goal of life is not to attain peace but that is a beginning platform. The ultimate goal of life is to fully surrendering to Krishna.

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A fully responsible man should always be conscious of the prime duty of the present human form of life. The activities to meet the immediate necessities of material life are not everything. One should always be alert in his duty for attainment of the best situation in the next life. Human life is meant for preparing ourselves for that prime duty.
Radhanath Swami
The purpose of life is to clean the environment of our heart.
Radhanath Swami
God is the center of everything. When we truly, honestly strive to make him the goal of our life, God will be pleased with our endeavor even if we fail. He will give us all help, and even in the difficulties we endure in the process, he will bring us closer and closer to him.
Radhanath Swami
Goal of life is not to become great but to become an instrument in the hands of great persons.
