Life

I am sure care's an enemy to life.
- William Shakespeare
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
She fights and vanquishes in me, and I live and breathe in her, and I have life and being.
Cervantes, Miguel De

2.
Life never becomes a habit to me. It's always a marvel.
Mansfield, Katherine

3.
The world is not to be put in order; the world is order, incarnate. It is for us to harmonize with this order.
Miller, Henry

4.
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

5.
Live as if everything you do will eventually be known.
Prather, Hugh

6.
We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn't matter so much as it seemed to do -- it's not so burningly important, after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the Ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over the promontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves, then we drop in the ocean on the other side: and the little transit doesn't matter so much.
Lawrence, D. H.

7.
This is what is sad when one contemplates human life, that so many live out their lives in quiet lostness... they live, as it were, away from themselves and vanish like shadows. Their immortal souls are blown away, and they are not disquieted by the question of its immortality, because they are already disintegrated before they die.
Kierkegaard, S°ren

8.
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.

9.
I am sure care's an enemy to life.
William Shakespeare

10.
People do not live nowadays. They get about 10% out of life.
Duncan, Isadora

11.
Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.
Leary, Denis

12.
The measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation.
Boom, Corrie Ten

13.
Life isn't simple. But the beauty of it is, you can always start over. It'll get easier.
Alacia Bessette

14.
The goal of life is living in agreement with nature.
Zeno

15.
A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man, is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest; Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem; and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world, Art.
Disraeli, Benjamin

16.
Living Life Tomorrow's fate, though thou be wise, Thou canst not tell nor yet surmise; Pass, therefore, not today in vain, For it will never come again.
Khayyam, Omar

17.
Life is not so bad if you have plenty of luck, a good physique and not too much imagination
Isherwood, Christopher

18.
The purpose of life is to fight maturity.
Dick Werthimer

19.
We would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it.
Kennedy, John F.

20.
The art of living is more like that of wrestling than of dancing; the main thing is to stand firm and be ready for an unseen attack.
Aurelius, Marcus

21.
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
Curie, Madame Marie

22.
Life is a succession of lessons enforced by immediate reward, or, oftener, by immediate chastisement.
Dimnet, Ernest

23.
All great art is born of the metropolis.
Pound, Ezra

24.
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

25.
Life is too short to be little. Man is never so manly as when he feels deeply, acts boldly, and expresses himself with frankness and with fervor.
Disraeli, Benjamin

26.
Life loves the liver of it.
Angelou, Maya

27.
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

28.
Those who live are those who fight.
Hugo, Victor

29.
Life itself is the proper binge.
Child, Julia

30.
Life is but a game and we are the playthings of the gods.

31.
Life was a funny thing that happened to me on the way to the grave.
Crisp, Quentin

32.
Life! Life! Don't let us go to life for our fulfillment or our experience. It is a thing narrowed by circumstances, incoherent in its utterance, and without that fine correspondence of form and spirit which is the only thing that can satisfy the artistic
Wilde, Oscar

33.
Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Samuel Butler

34.
Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.
Radner, Gilda

35.
In the book of life every page has two sides: we human beings fill the upper side with our plans, hopes and wishes, but providence writes on the other side, and what it ordains is seldom our goal.
Nisami

36.
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

37.
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true.
Cabell, James Branch

38.
You have to do what you love to do, not get stuck in that comfort zone of a regular job. Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it.
Basset, Lucinda

39.
He lives who dies to win a lasting name.
Drummond, Henry

40.
Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

41.
All things atrocious and shameless flock from all parts to Rome.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

42.
Our life's journey of self-discovery is not a straight-line rise from one level of consciousness to another. Instead, it is a series of steep climbs and flat plateaus, then further climbs. Even though we all approach the journey from different directions, certain of the journey's characteristics are common to all of us.
Wilde, Stuart

43.
Much violence is based on the illusion that life is a property to be defended and not to be shared.
Nouwen, Henri

44.
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

45.
Life is like a cash register, in that every account, every thought, every deed, like every sale, is registered and recorded.
Sheen, Fulton John

46.
Every perfect life is a parable invented by God.
Weil, Simone

47.
Life is a gamble at terrible odds, if it were a bet, you would not take it.
Stoppard, Tom

48.
Life is a little gleam of time between two eternity s.
Carlyle, Thomas

49.
This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning; silent bare, ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie open unto the fields and to the sky; All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Wordsworth, William

50.
There is always inequity in life. Some men are killed in a war, and some men are wounded, and some men are stationed in the Antarctic and some are stationed in San Francisco. It's very hard in military or personal life to assure complete equality. Life
Kennedy, John F.
