Life

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
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
Roosevelt, Eleanor

2.
The aim of life is some way of living, as flexible and gentle as human nature; so that ambition may stoop to kindness, and philosophy to condor and humor. Neither prosperity nor empire nor heaven can be worth winning at the price of a virulent temper, bloody hands, an anguished spirit, and a vain hatred of the rest of the world.
Santayana, George

3.
In the early days of the Indian Territory, there were no such things as birth certificates. You being there was certificate enough.
Rogers, Will

4.
Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things.
Clark, Frank A.

5.
Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forward.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

6.
Being is. Being is in-itself. Being is what it is.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

7.
This is it. There are no hidden meanings. All that mystical stuff is just what's so.
Erhard, Werner

8.
The life of every person is like a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another.
Barrie, Sir James M.

9.
Life's splendor forever lies in wait about each one of us in all its fullness, but veiled from view, deep down, invisible, far off. It is there, though, not hostile, not reluctant, not deaf. If you summon it by the right word, by its right name, it will come.
Kafka, Franz

10.
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.

11.
What a life! True life is elsewhere. We are not in the world.
Rimbaud, Arthur

12.
The good life is one inspired by life and guided by knowledge.
Russell, Bertrand

13.
Live as if you were living a second time, and as though you had acted wrongly the first time.
Frankl, Viktor E.

14.
Life is too short to learn German.
Porson, R.

15.
Life is a series of collisions with the future; it is not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

16.
Life is what we make it, always has been, always will be.
Moses, Grandma

17.
Eternal truths will be neither true nor eternal unless they have fresh meaning for every new social situation.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

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.
Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act.
Truman Capote

20.
Life is a grindstone. Whether it grinds us down or polishes us up depends on us.
Holdcroft, Thomas L.

21.
The tragedy of life is not that a man loses, but that he almost wins.
Broun, Heywood

22.
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

23.
In real life, however, you don't react to what someone did; you react only to what you think she did, and the gap between action and perception is bridged by the art of impression management. If life itself is but what you deem it, then why not focus your efforts on persuading others to believe that you are a virtuous and trustworthy cooperator?
Jonathan Haidt

24.
All great art is born of the metropolis.
Pound, Ezra

25.
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

26.
Cities, like cats, will reveal themselves at night.
Brooke, Rupert

27.
Life has taught me to think, but thinking has not taught me to live.
Herzen, Alexander

28.
There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.
Gandhi, Mahatma

29.
All that man has will he give for his life.
Bible

30.
Life is divided up into the horrible and the miserable.
Allen, Woody

31.
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
Woody Allen

32.
To live fully is to let go and die with each passing moment, and to be reborn in each new one.
Kornfield, Jack

33.
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

34.
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
Harris, Sidney J.

35.
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

36.
I believe that life is a journey, often difficult and sometimes incredibly cruel, but we are well equipped for it if only we tap into our talents and gifts and allow them to blossom.
Brown, Les

37.
The man who says he has exhausted life generally means that life has exhausted him.
Wilde, Oscar

38.
All things atrocious and shameless flock from all parts to Rome.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

39.
Life at the greatest and best is but a froward child, that must be humored and coaxed a little till it falls asleep, and then all the care is over.
Goldsmith, Oliver

40.
Two babies were born on the same day at the same hospital. They lay there and looked at each other. Their families came and took them away. Eighty years later, by a bizarre coincidence, they lay in the same hospital, on their deathbeds, next to each other. One of them looked at the other and said,so. What did you think?
Wright, Steven

41.
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

42.
Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.
Miller, Henry

43.
Live, let live, and help live
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

44.
There is no shortcut to life. To the end of our days, life is a lesson imperfectly learned.
Salisbury, Harrison

45.
Perhaps life is just that... a dream and a fear.
Conrad, Joseph

46.
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.

47.
What should I say about life? That it's long and abhors transparence.
Brodsky, Joseph

48.
May you live as long as you want and not want as long as you live.
Hanks, Tom

49.
Life isn't simple. But the beauty of it is, you can always start over. It'll get easier.
Alacia Bessette

50.
Life was a funny thing that happened to me on the way to the grave.
Crisp, Quentin
