Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
We quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the brim -- objects press around us, filling the mind with the throng of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
Wilde, Oscar

2.
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

3.
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true.
Cabell, James Branch

4.
Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression of the state of being human.
Frankl, Viktor E.

5.
Every morning I wake up saying, I'm still alive; a miracle. And so I keep on pushing.
Cousteau, Jacques

6.
What life means to us is determined, not so much by what life brings to us as by the attitude we bring to life; not so much by what happens to us as by our reaction to what happens.
Dunnington, Lewis L

7.
He who allows his day to pass by without practicing generosity and enjoying life's pleasures is like a blacksmith's bellows. He breathes, but does not live.
Proverb

8.
We Japanese enjoy the small pleasures, not extravagance. I believe a man should have a simple lifestyle -- even if he can afford more.
Ibuka, Massaru

9.
Life, we learn too late, is in the living, the tissue of every day and hour.
Leacock, Stephen B.

10.
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.
Thoreau, Henry David

11.
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

12.
Your life is what your thoughts make it.
Aurelius, Marcus

13.
To find the point where hypothesis and fact meet; the delicate equilibrium between dream and reality; the place where fantasy and earthly things are metamorphosed into a work of art; the hour when faith in the future becomes knowledge of the past; to lay down one's power for others in need; to shake off the old ordeal and get ready for the new; to question, knowing that never can the full answer be found; to accept uncertainties quietly, even our incomplete knowledge of God; this is what man's journey is about, I think.
Smith, Lillian

14.
Sometimes life is going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
Steve Jobs

15.
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

16.
Cities, like cats, will reveal themselves at night.
Brooke, Rupert

17.
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

18.
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.
Delacroix, Eugene

19.
Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep.
Fran Lebowitz

20.
On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.
Buddha

21.
Life is like wine, the longer you take to enjoy it the more chance you've got of tasting vinegar.

22.
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
Harris, Sidney J.

23.
The simplification of life is one of the steps to inner peace. A persistent simplification will create an inner and outer well-being that places harmony in one's life.
Pilgrim, Peace

24.
Towns are excrescences, gray fluxions, where men, hurrying to find one another, have lost themselves.
Forster, Edward M.

25.
Remember, a dead fish can float downstream, but it takes a live one to swim upstream.
Fields, W. C.

26.
Living the truth in your heart without compromise brings kindness into the world. Attempts at kindness that compromise your heart cause only sadness.

27.
Anything for the quick life, as the man said when he took the situation at the lighthouse.
Dickens, Charles

28.
Life It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury; signifying nothing.
Shakespeare, William

29.
Youth is too tumultuous for felicity; old age too insecure for happiness. The period most favorable to enjoyment, in a vigorous, fortunate, and generous life, is that between forty and sixty.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

30.
Life in the Fast Lane Playing in Traffic intense stressful challenging overwhelming fulfilling demanding exciting nerve-wrecking entrepreneurial unrelenting empowered exposed: no place to hide flexible confusing results compensation sweatshop team ascendancy ego suppression flat organizations who's my boss no titles no status customer focus self-abnegation decentralized decision making chaos the end of tenure the end of security no complacency fear ongoing change burnout

31.
The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

32.
Life is real! Life is earnest! And death is not its goal. Dust thou art, to dust returneth, was not spoken of the soul.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

33.
Life does not happen to us, it happens from us.
Wickett, Michael

34.
Life is but a moment, death also is but another.
Schuller, Robert H.

35.
What should I say about life? That it's long and abhors transparence.
Brodsky, Joseph

36.
The interest in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their relations to each other, but largely in the power to communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.
Woolf, Virginia

37.
Life must be lived forward, but can only be understood backwards.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

38.
I used to trouble about what life was for -- now being alive seems sufficient reason.
Field, Joanna

39.
Give a man a dollar and you cheer his heart. Give him a dream and you challenge his heart. Give him Christ and you change his heart. Then the dollar and the dream become meaningful to him, and to others.
Strait, C. Neil

40.
Any city however small, is in fact divided into two, one the city of the poor, the other of the rich. These are at war with one another.
Plato

41.
Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Die, search for meaning, search for meaning, search for meaning.
Horton, Doug

42.
I have an existential map; it has you are here written all over it.
Wright, Steven

43.
Dance like no one is watching, Love like you'll never be hurt, Sing like no one is listening, Live like it's heaven on earth.
Purkey, William

44.
When we speak the word life, it must be understood we are not referring to life as we know it from its surface of fact, but to that fragile, fluctuating center which forms never reach.
Artaud, Antonin

45.
Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's finger.
Anderson, Hans Christian

46.
Life marches by, I suggest you get on with it.
Baluch, Joy

47.
City life is millions of people being lonesome together.
Thoreau, Henry David

There are three stages in a person's life, birth, their life and death. They are not conscious of birth submit to death and forget to live.
La Bruyere, Jean De

49.
Be a life long or short, its completeness depends on what it was lived for.
Jordan, David Starr

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