Best Quotes about Life
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
Life is something you do when you can't get to sleep.
Lebowitz, Fran
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
One should not confuse the craving for life with endorsement of it.
Canetti, Elias
Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.
Lawrence, D. H.
The truest end of life, is to find the life that doesn't end.
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
Be glad of life because it gives you a chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at stars.
Dyke, Henry Van
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
There are four things every person has more of than they know; sins, debt, years, and foes.
Proverb, Persian
The Metropolis should have been aborted long before it became New York, London or Tokyo.
Galbraith, John Kenneth
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
Who goes to Rome a beast returns a beast.
Proverb, Italian
The real being, with no status, is always going in and out through the doors of your face.
Lin-Chi
Life is a horizontal fall.
Cocteau, Jean
My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone.
Foreman, George
What is important in life is life, and not the result of life.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
There are a number of things wrong with Washington. One of them is that everyone is too far from home.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.
He has not lived badly whose birth and death has been unnoticed by the world.
Horace
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.
Washington is an endless series of mock palaces clearly built for clerks.
Huxtable, Ada Louise
Where there is life there is wishful thinking.
Lieberman, Gerald F.
May God bless you to live as long as you want to; and want to as long as you live!
Proverb, Scottish
Living the truth in your heart without compromise brings kindness into the world. Attempts at kindness that compromise your heart cause only sadness.
Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
Shaw, George Bernard
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
Life is not a dress rehearsal.
Tremain, Rose
The four stages of life are infancy, childhood, adolescence, and obsolescence.
Linkletter, Art
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
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
Those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the Earth are never alone or weary of life.
Carson, Rachel
Anything for the quick life, as the man said when he took the situation at the lighthouse.
Dickens, Charles
What a life! True life is elsewhere. We are not in the world.
Rimbaud, Arthur
The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.
Mumford, Lewis
The City attaches an exaggerated importance to the healing power of lunch.
Fieldes, Christopher
Life is full and overflowing with the new. But it is necessary to empty out the old to make room for the new to enter.
Caddy, Eileen
Life must be lived forward, but can only be understood backwards.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
Look to the future, because that is where you'll spend the rest of your life.
Burns, George
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
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
Not by gain our life is measured, But by what we've lost 'Tis scored; 'Tis not how much wine is drunken But how much has been outpoured. For the strength of love never standeth In the sacrifice we bear; He who has the greatest suffering Ever has the most to share.
Nee, Watchman
There is more sophistication and less sense in New York than anywhere else on the globe.
Herold, Don
The chief function of the city is to convert power into form, energy into culture, dead matter into the living symbols of art, biological reproduction into social creativity.
Mumford, Lewis
Threescore years and ten is enough; if a man can't suffer all the misery he wants in that time, he must be numb.
Billings, Josh
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it.
Osler, Sir William
Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around.
Hepburn, Katharine
Life is a petty thing unless it is moved by the indomitable urge to extend its boundaries. Only in proportion as we are desirous of living more do we really live.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y
Without fullness of experience, length of days is nothing. When fullness of life has been achieved, shortness of days is nothing. That is perhaps why the young have usually so little fear of death; they live by intensities that the elderly have forgotten.
Mumford, Lewis
The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, passion.
Boulanger, Nadia
This is it. There are no hidden meanings. All that mystical stuff is just what's so.
Erhard, Werner
