A great city is not to be confounded with a populous one.
- Aristotle
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination.
Rogers, Carl

2.
In matters of self-control as we shall see again and again, speed kills. But a little friction really can save lives.
Daniel Akst

3.
Life is a long lesson in humility.
James M. Barrie

4.
We would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it.
Kennedy, John F.

5.
The search is what anyone would undertake if he were not sunk in the everydayness of his own life. To become aware of the possibility of the search is to be onto something. Not to be onto something is to be in despair.
Percy, Walker

6.
Prepare for death, if here at night you roam, and sign your will before you sup from home.
Johnson, Samuel

7.
Life has taught me that it is not for our faults that we are disliked and even hated, but for our qualities.
Berenson, Bernard

8.
Life is not having been told that the man has just waxed the floor.
Nash, Ogden

9.
Life is a series of steps. Things are done gradually. Once in a while there is a giant step, but most of the time we are taking small, seemingly insignificant steps on the stairway of life.
Ransom, Ralph

10.
There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.
Gandhi, Mahatma

11.
I have never felt salvation in nature. I love cities above all.
Michelangelo

12.
The essence of life is finding something you really love and then making the daily experience worthwhile.
Waitley, Denis

13.
Cities are distinguished by the catastrophic forms they presuppose and which are a vital part of their essential charm. New York is King Kong, or the blackout, or vertical bombardment: Towering Inferno. Los Angeles is the horizontal fault, California breaking off and sliding into the Pacific: Earthquake.
Baudrillard, Jean

14.
Life is an end in itself, and the only question as to whether it is worth living is whether you have had enough of it.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

15.
Life must be lived forward, but can only be understood backwards.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

16.
Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find tomorrow on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, If I had my life to live over again. Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.
Mandino, Og

17.
Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's finger.
Anderson, Hans Christian

18.
Living the truth in your heart without compromise brings kindness into the world. Attempts at kindness that compromise your heart cause only sadness.

19.
Life is not a series of gig lamps symmetrically arranged; life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end.
Woolf, Virginia

20.
The lessons this life has planted in my heart pertain more to caring than crops, more to Golden Rule than gold, more to the proper choice than to the popular choice.
Kirby Larson

21.
Either these [unsaved] people are to be evangelized, or the leaven of communism and infidelity will assume such enormous proportions that it will break you in a reign of terror such as this country has never known.
Moody, Dwight L.

22.
Life is too short to be little. Man is never so manly as when he feels deeply, acts boldly, and expresses himself with frankness and with fervor.
Disraeli, Benjamin

23.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
Steve Jobs

24.
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.

25.
Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

26.
Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.
Radner, Gilda

27.
The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, passion.
Boulanger, Nadia

28.
If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a movable feast.
Hemingway, Ernest

29.
All things atrocious and shameless flock from all parts to Rome.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

30.
Life is a petty thing unless it is moved by the indomitable urge to extend its boundaries. Only in proportion as we are desirous of living more do we really live.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

31.
I should have no objection to go over the same life from its beginning to the end: requesting only the advantage authors have, of correcting in a second edition the faults of the first.
Franklin, Benjamin

32.
The world is not to be put in order; the world is order, incarnate. It is for us to harmonize with this order.
Miller, Henry

33.
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.
Delacroix, Eugene

34.
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Crowley, Aleister

35.
Man spends his life in reasoning on the past, in complaining of the present, in fearing future.
Rivarol, Antoine

36.
To live is to go on a journey; to die is to come back home.

37.
Life without meaning cannot be borne. We find a mission to which we're sworn

38.
In the game of life it's a good idea to have a few early losses, which relieves you of the pressure of trying to maintain an undefeated season.
Baughan, Bill

39.
Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others
Keller, Helen

40.
First I was dying to finish high-school and start college. Then I was dying to finish college and start working. Next, I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school, so I could return to work. Finally, I was dying to retire. And now, I am dying

41.
Life is not always not always what one wants it to be., but to make the best of it as it is the only way of being happy.
Churchill, Jennie Jerome

42.
Most of us fall short much more by omission than by commission. While the world perishes we go our way: purposeless, passionless, day after day.
Pilgrim, Peace

43.
Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
Saroyan, William

44.
We live, not as we wish to, but as we can.
Menander of Athens

45.
Life is a means of extracting fiction.
Stone, Robert

46.
Nothing can be meaner than the anxiety to live on, to live on anyhow and in any shape; a spirit with any honor is not willing to live except in its own way, and a spirit with any wisdom is not over-eager to live at all.
Santayana, George

47.
This tattered life is my only robe; the wind my only refuge.
Mountain, Marian

48.
The best things in life are never rationed. Friendship, loyalty, and love. They do not require coupons.
Hewitt, George T.

49.
See everything, overlook a great deal, correct a little.
Pope John XXIII

50.
The sad souls of those who lived without blame and without praise.
Dante Alighieri
