Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
Hemingway, Ernest

2.
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -- that myth is more potent than history. I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts -- That hope always triumphs over experience -- That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
Fulghum, Robert

3.
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

4.
For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. [James 4:14]
Bible

5.
What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.
Brodsky, Joseph

6.
In between goals is a thing called life, that has to be lived and enjoyed.
Caesar, Sid

7.
We do not look in our great cities for our best morality.
Austen, Jane

8.
Life is like a taxi. The meter just keeps a-ticking whether you are getting somewhere or just standing still.
Erickson, Lou

9.
The purpose of life is to fight maturity.
Dick Werthimer

10.
Man values life as a sacred jewel in such a way that he reveres him most who haughtily scorns it.
Platen

11.
Every morning I wake up saying, I'm still alive; a miracle. And so I keep on pushing.
Cousteau, Jacques

12.
We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.
Sir Winston Churchill

13.
Optimism and humor are the grease and glue of life. Without both of them we would never have survived our captivity.
Butler, Philip

14.
Life is supposed to get tough.
Grammer, Kelsey

15.
Live today for tomorrow it will all be history.
Proverb

16.
Can't nothing make your life work if you ain't the architect.
McMillan, Terry

17.
The man who says he has exhausted life generally means that life has exhausted him.
Wilde, Oscar

18.
If we make our goal to live a life of compassion and unconditional love, then the world will indeed become a garden where all kinds of flowers can bloom and grow.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

19.
Washington is an endless series of mock palaces clearly built for clerks.
Huxtable, Ada Louise

20.
Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things.
Clark, Frank A.

21.
Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others
Keller, Helen

22.
To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

23.
There are chapters in every life which are seldom read and certainly not aloud.
Shields, Carol

24.
Is life worth living? It all depends on the liver.
James, William

25.
One has not great hopes from Birmingham. I always say there is something direful in the sound.
Austen, Jane

26.
The enjoyments of this life are not equal to its evils.
Pliny The Elder

27.
All of life is a foreign country.
Kerouac, Jack

28.
A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.
Cowper, William

29.
It doesn't matter much where you live. It only matters how well you live when you're there

30.
Life without meaning cannot be borne. We find a mission to which we're sworn

31.
Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways.
Benet, Stephen Vincent

32.
The slightest living thing answers a deeper need than all the works of man because it is transitory. It has an evanescence of life, or growth, or change: it passes, as we do, from one stage to the another, from darkness to darkness, into a distance where we, too, vanish out of sight. A work of art is static; and its value and its weakness lie in being so: but the tuft of grass and the clouds above it belong to our own travelling brotherhood.
Stark, Freya

33.
Cities, like cats, will reveal themselves at night.
Brooke, Rupert

34.
Life is indeed difficult, partly because of the real difficulties we must overcome in order to survive, and partly because of our own innate desire to always do better, to overcome new challenges, to self-actualize. Happiness is experienced largely in striving towards a goal, not in having attained things, because our nature is always to want to go on to the next endeavor.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi

35.
Make your life a happy one. That is where success is possible to every man.
Powell, Robert

36.
The old Quaker was right: I expect to pass through life but once. If there is any kindness, or any good thing I can do to my fellow beings, let me do it now. I shall pass this way but once.
Gannett, W. C.

37.
The mountains, rivers, earth, grasses, trees, and forests are always emanating a subtle, precious light, day and night, always emanating a subtle, precious sound, demonstrating and expounding to all people the unsurpassed ultimate truth.
Yuan-Sou

38.
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

39.
A great city is not to be confounded with a populous one.
Aristotle

40.
We never live, but we hope to live; and as we are always arranging to be happy, it must be that we never are so.
Pascal, Blaise

41.
All that man has will he give for his life.
Bible

42.
Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
Miller, Henry

43.
Life is a continual process of remaking ourselves.

44.
A man's life is 20 years of having his mother ask him where he is going, 40 years of having his wife ask the same question and, at the end, perhaps having the mourners wondering too.

45.
Life never becomes a habit to me. It's always a marvel.
Mansfield, Katherine

46.
Life is like riding a bicycle. You don't fall off unless you stop peddling.
Pepper, Claude D.

47.
If you seek, how is that different from pursuing sound and form? If you don't seek, how are you different from earth, wood, or stone? You must seek without seeking.
Fo-Yan

48.
This is what you shall do: love the earth and sun, and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence towards the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown, or to any man or number of men; go freely with the powerful uneducated persons, and with the young, and mothers, of families: read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life: re-examine all you have been told at school or church, or in any books, and dismiss whatever insults your soul.
Whitman, Walt

49.
New York is an exciting town where something is happening all the time, most unsolved.
Carson, Johnny

50.
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Camus, Albert
