Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together.
William Shakespeare

2.
We will neglect our cities to our peril, for in neglecting them we neglect the nation.
Kennedy, John F.

3.
The purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things
Rilke, Rainer Maria

4.
As a remedy to life in society I would suggest the big city. Nowadays, it is the only desert within our means.
Camus, Albert

5.
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

6.
The best things in life are never rationed. Friendship, loyalty, and love. They do not require coupons.
Hewitt, George T.

7.
Living the truth in your heart without compromise brings kindness into the world. Attempts at kindness that compromise your heart cause only sadness.

8.
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

9.
Every perfect life is a parable invented by God.
Weil, Simone

10.
Life is divided up into the horrible and the miserable.
Allen, Woody

11.
America is a nation with no truly national city, no Paris, no Rome, no London, no city which is at once the social center, the political capital, and the financial hub.
Mills, C. Wright

12.
Live for those who love me, For those who know me true, For the Heaven that smiles above me, And awaits my coming too; For the cause that lacks resistance, For the future and the distance, And the good that I can do.

13.
The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.
Carlyle, Thomas

14.
Life isn't simple. But the beauty of it is, you can always start over. It'll get easier.
Alacia Bessette

15.
Life's enchanted cup sparkles near the brim.
Byron, Lord

16.
If I had been present at creation, I would have given some useful hints.
Wise, Alfonso The

17.
Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's finger.
Anderson, Hans Christian

18.
Living, just by itself -- what a dirge that is! Life is a classroom and Boredom's the usher, there all the time to spy on you; whatever happens, you've got to look as if you were awfully busy all the time doing something that's terribly exciting --or he'll come along and nibble your brain.
Celine, Louis-Ferdinand

19.
We dribble away our life, little by little, in small packages -- we don't throw it away all at once.
Cook, Robert A.

20.
There are chapters in every life which are seldom read and certainly not aloud.
Shields, Carol

21.
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

22.
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really merely commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the planning, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chain of events, working through generations and leading to the most outer results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.
Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan

23.
Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.
Brendan Gill

24.
He has not lived badly whose birth and death has been unnoticed by the world.
Horace

25.
The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live --moreover, the only one.
Cioran, E. M.

26.
You are a little soul carrying around a corpse.
Epictetus

27.
To live life well is to express life poorly; if one expresses life too well, one is living it no longer.
Bachelard, Gaston

28.
If I shall sell both my forenoons and afternoons to society, as most appear to do, I'm sure that, for me, there would be nothing left worth living for.
Thoreau, Henry David

29.
Those who live are those who fight.
Hugo, Victor

30.
The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. [Psalms 90:10]
Bible

31.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late
Franklin, Benjamin

32.
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
Aristotle

33.
Sometimes life is going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
Steve Jobs

34.
Life is like wine, the longer you take to enjoy it the more chance you've got of tasting vinegar.

35.
Life does not happen to us, it happens from us.
Wickett, Michael

36.
Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to save it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

37.
Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.
Robbins, Anthony

38.
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.

39.
I used to trouble about what life was for -- now being alive seems sufficient reason.
Field, Joanna

40.
A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs...
Epicurus

41.
Life is just a journey
Diana, Princess of Wales

42.
Men must live and create. Live to the point of tears.
Camus, Albert

43.
Life is like Sanskrit read to a pony.
Reed, Lou

44.
Life is something that everyone should try at least once.
Henry J. Tillman

45.
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true.
Cabell, James Branch

46.
Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding.
Lao-Tzu

47.
This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in.
Dickens, Charles

48.
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

49.
Life is a fatal complaint, and an eminently contagious one.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

50.
One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.
