Life

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
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Life is like a taxi. The meter just keeps a-ticking whether you are getting somewhere or just standing still.
Erickson, Lou

2.
There are chapters in every life which are seldom read and certainly not aloud.
Shields, Carol

3.
I found Rome brick, I left it marble.
Augustus, Caesar

4.
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

5.
To attain inner peace you must actually give your life, not just your possessions. When you at last give your life -- bringing into alignment your beliefs and the way you live then, and only then, can you begin to find inner peace.
Pilgrim, Peace

6.
Washington is an endless series of mock palaces clearly built for clerks.
Huxtable, Ada Louise

7.
It's not how long life is but the quality of our life that is important.
Dawson, Roger

8.
Life is like eating artichokes, you have got to go through so much to get so little.
Dorgan, Thomas A.

9.
Refrain from asking what going to happen tomorrow, and everyday that fortune grants you, count as gain.
Horace

10.
The purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things
Rilke, Rainer Maria

11.
We are in danger of making our cities places where business goes on but where life, in its real sense, is lost.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

12.
Life is a thing that mutates without warning, not always in enviable ways. All part of the improbable adventure of being alive, of being a brainy biped with giant dreams on a crazy blue planet.
Diane Ackerman

13.
Life is like one big Mardi Gras. But instead of showing your boobs, show people your brain, and if they like what they'll, you'll have more beads than you know what to do with.
Ellen DeGeneres

14.
Life is a rollercoaster. Try to eat a light lunch.
Schmaltz, David A.

15.
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

16.
It is vanity to desire a long life and to take no heed of a good life.
Kempis, Thomas

17.
There is only one way to get ready for immortality, and that is to love this life and live it as bravely and faithfully and cheerfully as we can.
Dyke, Henry Van

18.
The cloud-capp'd towers,the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve, And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff As dreams are made on; and our little life Is rounded with a sleep.
William Shakespeare

19.
We all live in suspense from day to day; in other words, you are the hero of your own story.
Mccarthy, Mary

20.
Life is a classroom in which each of us is being tested, tried, and passed.
Thibodeau, Robert

21.
Life is a continual process of remaking ourselves.

22.
All things may be bought in Rome with money.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

23.
Life in the twentieth century is like a parachute jump; you have to get it right the first time.
Mead, Margaret

24.
Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

25.
I am sure care's an enemy to life.
William Shakespeare

26.
Life's but a day at most.
Burns, George

27.
If God exists and we are made in his image we can have real meaning, and we can have real knowledge through what he has communicated to us.
Schaeffer, Francis

28.
People creep into childhood, bound into youth, sober in adulthood, and soften into old age.
Giles, Henry

29.
If you believed more in life you would fling yourself less to the moment.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

30.
Life is given for wisdom, and yet we are not wise; for goodness, and we are not good; for overcoming evil, and evil remains; for patience and sympathy and love, and yet we are fretful and hard and weak and selfish. We are keyed not to attainment, but to the struggle toward it.
Munger, Thornton T.

31.
The surrender of life is nothing to sinking down into acknowledgment of inferiority.
Calhoun, John C.

32.
Best to live lightly, unthinkingly.
Sophocles

33.
The chief function of the city is to convert power into form, energy into culture, dead matter into the living symbols of art, biological reproduction into social creativity.
Mumford, Lewis

34.
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

35.
The man who says he has exhausted life generally means that life has exhausted him.
Wilde, Oscar

36.
The four stages of life are infancy, childhood, adolescence, and obsolescence.
Linkletter, Art

37.
The art of mastering life is the prerequisite for all further forms of expression, whether they are paintings, sculptures, tragedies, or musical compositions.
Klee, Paul

38.
It has always been difficult for Man to realize that his life is all an art. It has been more difficult to conceive it so than to act it so. For that is always how he has more or less acted it.
Ellis, Havelock

39.
Life is a great surprise. I don't see why death should not be an even greater one.
Nabokov, Vladimir

40.
There is no quiet place in the white man's cities. No place to hear the unfurling of leaves in spring, or the rustle of an insect's wings. But perhaps it is because I am a savage and do not understand. The clatter only seems to insult the ears.
Seattle, Chief

41.
To live life well is to express life poorly; if one expresses life too well, one is living it no longer.
Bachelard, Gaston

42.
Sometimes life is going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
Steve Jobs

43.
Making a life comes before making a living.

44.
Much violence is based on the illusion that life is a property to be defended and not to be shared.
Nouwen, Henri

45.
Today, you have 100% of your life left.

48.
If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor.
Roosevelt, Eleanor

49.
Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. The moment you know how, you begin to die a little. The artist never entirely knows. We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark.
Mille, Agnes De

50.
Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.
Isaac Asimov
