Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Life is like a cash register, in that every account, every thought, every deed, like every sale, is registered and recorded.
Sheen, Fulton John

2.
Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things.
Clark, Frank A.

3.
Well, take your time and don't live too fast. Troubles will come and they will pass. Find a woman and you'll find love. Don't forget, son, there is someone up above.
Skynard, Lynard

4.
Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.
Leary, Denis

5.
Life is uncharted territory. It reveals its story one moment at a time.
Buscaglia, Leo

6.
You live in a deranged age, more deranged that usual, because in spite of great scientific and technological advances, man has not the faintest idea of who he is or what he is doing.
Percy, Walker

7.
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.
Delacroix, Eugene

8.
Life was mostly made up of things you couldn't control, full of surprises, and they weren't always good. Life wasn't what you made it. You were what life made you.
Sara Zarr

9.
The continuous invention of new ways of observing is man's special secret of living.
Young, J. Z.

10.
Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Samuel Butler

11.
Every true man, sir, who is a little above the level of the beasts and plants does not live for the sake of living, without knowing how to live; but he lives so as to give a meaning and a value of his own to life.
Pirandello, Luigi

12.
We come into this world head first and go out feet first; in between, it is all a matter of balance.
Boese, Paul

13.
Our life's journey of self-discovery is not a straight-line rise from one level of consciousness to another. Instead, it is a series of steep climbs and flat plateaus, then further climbs. Even though we all approach the journey from different directions, certain of the journey's characteristics are common to all of us.
Wilde, Stuart

14.
It is faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth looking at.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

15.
Refrain from asking what going to happen tomorrow, and everyday that fortune grants you, count as gain.
Horace

16.
In the book of life every page has two sides: we human beings fill the upper side with our plans, hopes and wishes, but providence writes on the other side, and what it ordains is seldom our goal.
Nisami

17.
Man spends his life in reasoning on the past, in complaining of the present, in fearing future.
Rivarol, Antoine

18.
The only reason they come to see me is that I know that life is great -- and they know I know it.
Gable, Clark

19.
Life has taught me to think, but thinking has not taught me to live.
Herzen, Alexander

20.
One should not confuse the craving for life with endorsement of it.
Canetti, Elias

21.
She fights and vanquishes in me, and I live and breathe in her, and I have life and being.
Cervantes, Miguel De

22.
Life -- how curious is that habit that makes us think it is not here, but elsewhere.
Pritchett, V. S.

23.
Life is not a spectacle or a feast; it is a predicament.
Santayana, George

24.
We have long forgotten the ritual by which the house of our life was erected. But when it is under assault and enemy bombs are already taking their toll, what enervated, perverse antiquities do they not lay bare in the foundations.
Benjamin, Walter

25.
Life's enchanted cup sparkles near the brim.
Byron, Lord

26.
Life loves the liver of it.
Angelou, Maya

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

28.
Let life happen to you. Believe me: life is in the right, always.
Rilke, Rainer Maria

29.
Life is fickle; the fair man doesn't invariably win.
Mark Hodder

30.
Life is a classroom in which each of us is being tested, tried, and passed.
Thibodeau, Robert

31.
Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around.
Hepburn, Katharine

32.
Washington is a place where politicians don't know which way is up and taxes don't know which way is down.
Orben, Robert

33.
Deep down, no one really believes they have a right to live. But this death sentence generally stays tucked away, hidden beneath the difficulty of living. If that difficulty is removed from time to time, death is suddenly there, unintelligibly.
Baudrillard, Jean

34.
Life. A spiritual pickle preserving the body from decay.
Bierce, Ambrose

35.
It is not length of life, but depth of life.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

36.
This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in.
Dickens, Charles

37.
Paris is the caf? of Europe.
Galiani, Ferdinando

38.
Life isn't fair. It's just fairer than death, that's all.
William Goldman

39.
Life is a means of extracting fiction.
Stone, Robert

40.
Life is like wine, the longer you take to enjoy it the more chance you've got of tasting vinegar.

41.
Where the criminals cover their crimes by making them legal. [On Washington D. C.]
Dane, Frank

42.
A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man, is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest; Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem; and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world, Art.
Disraeli, Benjamin

43.
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

44.
Life is but a game and we are the playthings of the gods.

45.
The first thing that strikes a visitor to Paris is a taxi.
Allen, Fred A.

46.
Life is full of surprises and and serendipity. Being open to unexpected turns in the road is an important part of success. If you try to plan every step, you may miss those wonderful twists and turns. Just find your next adventure-do it well, enjoy it-and then, not now, think about what comes next.
Condoleeza Rice

47.
Not to find one's way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance -- nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city -- as one loses oneself in a forest -- that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest.
Benjamin, Walter

48.
Life is a zoo in a jungle.
Peter De Vries

49.
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

50.
Life is like playing the violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Butler, Samuel
