Life

Life is really about a spiritual unfolding that is personal and enchanting -- an unfolding that no science or philosophy or religion has yet fully clarified.
- Redfield, James
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
The enjoyments of this life are not equal to its evils.
Pliny The Elder

2.
I look upon those pitiful concretions of lime and clay which spring up, in mildewed forwardness, out of the kneaded fields about our capital... not merely with the careless disgust of an offended eye, not merely with sorrow for a desecrated landscape, but with a painful foreboding that the roots of our national greatness must be deeply cankered when they are thus loosely struck in their native ground. The crowded tenements of a struggling and restless population differ only from the tents of the Arab or the Gipsy by their less healthy openness to the air of heaven, and less happy choice of their spot of earth; by their sacrifice of liberty without the gain of rest, and of stability without the luxury of change.
Ruskin, John

3.
The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live --moreover, the only one.
Cioran, E. M.

4.
What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.
Brodsky, Joseph

5.
All that a city will ever allow you is an angle on it -- an oblique, indirect sample of what it contains, or what passes through it; a point of view.
Conrad, Peter

6.
See everything, overlook a great deal, correct a little.
Pope John XXIII

7.
Man values life as a sacred jewel in such a way that he reveres him most who haughtily scorns it.
Platen

8.
The truest end of life, is to find the life that doesn't end.

9.
There is more sophistication and less sense in New York than anywhere else on the globe.
Herold, Don

10.
The person who does not know how to live while they are making a living is a poorer person after their wealth is won than when they started.
Holland, Josiah Gilbert

11.
There is one thing that matters -- to set a chime of words tinkling in the minds of a few fastidious people.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

12.
It is not the years in your life but the life in your years that counts!
Stevenson, Adlai E.

13.
May God bless you to live as long as you want to; and want to as long as you live!
Proverb, Scottish

14.
Anything for the quick life, as the man said when he took the situation at the lighthouse.
Dickens, Charles

15.
I am sure care's an enemy to life.
William Shakespeare

16.
Either these [unsaved] people are to be evangelized, or the leaven of communism and infidelity will assume such enormous proportions that it will break you in a reign of terror such as this country has never known.
Moody, Dwight L.

17.
We are born crying, live complaining, and die disappointed.
Fuller, Thomas

18.
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

19.
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

20.
Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.
Wally'Famous'Amos

21.
It's not true that life is one damn thing after another; it's one damn thing over and over.
Millay, Edna St. Vincent

22.
This also -- that I live, I consider a gift of God.
Ovid

23.
Life is an operation which is done in a forward direction. One lives toward the future, because to live consists inexorably in doing, in each individual life making itself.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

24.
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Camus, Albert

25.
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Crowley, Aleister

26.
Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to save it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

27.
When it comes to life the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

28.
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

29.
We would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it.
Kennedy, John F.

30.
Life is a gamble at terrible odds, if it were a bet, you would not take it.
Stoppard, Tom

31.
Life is fickle; the fair man doesn't invariably win.
Mark Hodder

32.
Variability is the law of life, and as no two faces are the same, so no two bodies are alike, and no two individuals react alike and behave alike under the abnormal conditions which we know as disease.
Osler, Sir William

33.
He has not lived badly whose birth and death has been unnoticed by the world.
Horace

34.
Life is very interesting if you make mistakes.
Carpentier, Georges

35.
The life of man is a long march through the night, surrounded by invisible foes, tortured by weariness and pain, towards a goal that few can hope to reach, and where none may tarry long.
Russell, Bertrand

36.
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.
Blake, William

37.
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.
Delacroix, Eugene

38.
Life is a zoo in a jungle.
Peter De Vries

39.
Every perfect life is a parable invented by God.
Weil, Simone

40.
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

41.
No one knows when they are well off.
Punch

42.
The average person living to age 70 has 613, 000 hours of life. This is too long a period not to have fun.

43.
It is not length of life, but depth of life.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

44.
It doesn't matter much where you live. It only matters how well you live when you're there

The dream crossed twilight between birth and dying.

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

48.
The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.
Carlyle, Thomas

49.
Walk through life eager and open to self-improvement and that which is going to best help you evolve, because that's really why were here: to evolve as human beings.
Oprah Winfrey

50.
Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.
Lawrence, D. H.
