Best Quotes about Life

1.
There is no solitude in the world like that of the big city.
Norris, Kathleen

2.
The faces in New York remind me of people who played a game and lost.
Kempton, Murray

3.
A neighborhood is a residential area that is changing for the worse.
Ciardi, John

4.
You live in a deranged age, more deranged that usual, because in spite of great scientific and technological advances, man has not the faintest idea of who he is or what he is doing.
Percy, Walker

5.
Where there is life there is wishful thinking.
Lieberman, Gerald F.

6.
We have long forgotten the ritual by which the house of our life was erected. But when it is under assault and enemy bombs are already taking their toll, what enervated, perverse antiquities do they not lay bare in the foundations.
Benjamin, Walter

7.
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

One of the most appalling comments on our present way of life is that half of all the beds in our hospitals are reserved for patients with nervous and mental troubles, patients who have collapsed under the crushing burden of accumulated yesterdays and fearful tomorrows. Yet a vast majority of those people would be walking the streets today, leading happy, useful lives, if they had only heeded the words of Jesus: Have no anxiety about the morrow; or the words of Sir William Osler; Live in day-tight compartments.
Carnegie, Dale

Gellert

What is a city, but the people; true the people are the city.
Coriolanus III

Edna St. Vincent Millay

15.
They that have lived a single day have lived an age.
La Bruyere, Jean De

16.
The art of living does not consist in preserving and clinging to a particular mode of happiness. but in allowing happiness to change its form without being disappointed the change; happiness, like a child, must be allowed to grow Up.
Morgan, Charles

17.
Refrain from asking what going to happen tomorrow, and everyday that fortune grants you, count as gain.
Horace

18.
A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.
Cowper, William

19.
Cities are distinguished by the catastrophic forms they presuppose and which are a vital part of their essential charm. New York is King Kong, or the blackout, or vertical bombardment: Towering Inferno. Los Angeles is the horizontal fault, California breaking off and sliding into the Pacific: Earthquake.
Baudrillard, Jean

20.
Life is but a game and we are the playthings of the gods.

21.
Life is an onion and one cries while peeling it.
Proverb, French

Mansfield, Katherine

Dyke, Henry Van

It is very certain that the desire of life prolongs it.
Byron, Lord

26.
New York is not Mecca. It just smells like it.
Simon, Neil

27.
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

28.
Feelings are really your GPS system for life. When your supposed to do something, or not supposed to do something, your emotional guidance system lets you know.
Oprah Winfrey

29.
Life may not be beautiful, but it is interesting.
Seeley, Sir John Robert

30.
It is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.
Hayakawa, S. I.

31.
Life is a rollercoaster. Try to eat a light lunch.
Schmaltz, David A.

32.
So in all these little ways we spin a web, a cocoon, around ourselves. The cocoon becomes nice and snug and comfortable because it is very familiar. We know every little corner of our life; we can even write poetry about it. We may also have ideas about the great mystery which religions speak of, which gives our cocoon an especial sense of security: we can worship the great mystery outside of it and feel good about that. The cocoon is safe, bounded, claustrophobic, and a little stale. We settle into it and live our lives.
Hayward, Jeremy W.

33.

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

34.
Life is an earnest business, and no one every became good or great on a diet of broad grins.
Blackie, Professor

35.
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

36.
Life is constantly providing us with new funds, new resources, even when we are reduced to immobility. In life's ledger there is no such thing as frozen assets.
Miller, Henry

37.
In matters of self-control as we shall see again and again, speed kills. But a little friction really can save lives.
Daniel Akst

38.
Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
Saroyan, William

39.
Life is not having been told that the man has just waxed the floor.
Nash, Ogden

40.
Live poor so you can die rich.

41.
Like bees, they must put their lives into the sting they give.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

42.
We live everything as it comes, without warning, like an actor going on cold. And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself? That is why life is always a sketch. No sketch is not quite the right word, because a sketch is an outline of something, the groundwork for a picture, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch of nothing, an outline with no picture.
Kundera, Milan

43.
Be a life long or short, its completeness depends on what it was lived for.
Jordan, David Starr

44.
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

45.
Cities give us collision. 'Tis said, London and New York take the nonsense out of a man.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

46.
Who goes to Rome a beast returns a beast.
Proverb, Italian

47.
Life is a disease; and the only difference between one man and another is the stage of the disease at which he lives. You are always at the crisis: I am always in the convalescent stage.
Shaw, George Bernard

48.
Life -- No, I've nothing to teach you about it for the moment. May be writing about it another week.
Forster, Edward M.

49.
Through this broad street, restless ever, ebbs and flows a human tide, wave on wave a living river; wealth and fashion side by side; Toiler, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide.
Whittier, John Greenleaf

50.
Life has taught me that it is not for our faults that we are disliked and even hated, but for our qualities.
Berenson, Bernard
