Life

Life, we learn too late, is in the living, the tissue of every day and hour.
- Leacock, Stephen B.
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
The city is loveliest when the sweet death racket begins. Her own life lived in defiance of nature, her electricity, her frigidaires, her soundproof walls, the glint of lacquered nails, the plumes that wave across the corrugated sky. Here in the coffin depths grow the everlasting flowers sent by telegraph.
Miller, Henry

2.
A city is a large community where people are lonesome together.
Prochnow, Herbert

3.
Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Samuel Butler

4.
The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
Ben Stein

5.
Life is an unbroken succession of false situations.
Thornton Wilder

6.
Life's splendor forever lies in wait about each one of us in all its fullness, but veiled from view, deep down, invisible, far off. It is there, though, not hostile, not reluctant, not deaf. If you summon it by the right word, by its right name, it will come.
Kafka, Franz

7.
Life at the top is financially rewarding, spiritually draining, physically exhausting, and short.
Newman, Peter C.

8.
The life of man is a journey; a journey that must be traveled, however bad the roads or the accommodation.
Goldsmith, Oliver

9.
Men must live and create. Live to the point of tears.
Camus, Albert

10.
I found Rome brick, I left it marble.
Augustus, Caesar

11.
Some people seem to go through life standing at the complaint counter.
Propp Jr., Fred

12.
What a life! True life is elsewhere. We are not in the world.
Rimbaud, Arthur

13.
If our life is unhappy it is painful to bear; if it is happy it is horrible to lose, So the one is pretty equal to the other.
La Bruyere, Jean De

14.
We live, not as we wish to, but as we can.
Menander of Athens

15.
May God bless you to live as long as you want to; and want to as long as you live!
Proverb, Scottish

16.
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
Harris, Sidney J.

17.
We have committed the Golden Rule to memory; let us now commit it to life.
Markham, Edwin

18.
It is in the thirties that we want friends. In the forties we know they won't save us any more than love did.

19.
Life is a great surprise. I don't see why death should not be an even greater one.
Nabokov, Vladimir

20.
Life is what we make it, always has been, always will be.
Moses, Grandma

21.
May you live as long as you want and not want as long as you live.
Hanks, Tom

22.
A neighborhood is a residential area that is changing for the worse.
Ciardi, John

23.
Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor.
Aleichem, Sholom

24.
The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experiences.
Roosevelt, Eleanor

25.
Prepare for death, if here at night you roam, and sign your will before you sup from home.
Johnson, Samuel

26.
The drama of life begins with a wail and ends with a sigh.
Antrim, Minna

27.
Life is a rollercoaster. Try to eat a light lunch.
Schmaltz, David A.

28.
Cities give us collision. 'Tis said, London and New York take the nonsense out of a man.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

29.
One belongs to New York instantly. One belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years.
Wolfe, Thomas

30.
Life is an end in itself, and the only question as to whether it is worth living is whether you have had enough of it.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

31.
Difficulties come when you don't pay attention to life's whisper. Life always whispers to you first, but if you ignore the whisper, sooner or later you'll get a scream.
Oprah Winfrey

32.
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

33.
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

34.
Every true man, sir, who is a little above the level of the beasts and plants does not live for the sake of living, without knowing how to live; but he lives so as to give a meaning and a value of his own to life.
Pirandello, Luigi

35.
Look to the future, because that is where you'll spend the rest of your life.
Burns, George

36.
Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.
Lawrence, D. H.

37.
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Brecht, Bertolt

38.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late
Franklin, Benjamin

39.
It is faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth looking at.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

40.
We do not look in our great cities for our best morality.
Austen, Jane

41.
The measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation.
Boom, Corrie Ten

42.
Life has a practice of living you, if you don't live it.
Larkin, Philip

43.
We don't beat the Grim Reaper by living longer, we beat the Reaper by living well and living fully, for the Reaper will come for all of us. The question is what do we do between the time we are born and the time he shows up. It's too late to do all the things that you're gonna kinda get around to.
Randy Pausch

44.
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.
Thoreau, Henry David

Life, an age to the miserable, and a moment to the happy.
Bacon, Francis

47.
Washington is no place for a good actor. The competition from bad actors is too great.
Allen, Fred A.

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

50.
Life is a series of steps. Things are done gradually. Once in a while there is a giant step, but most of the time we are taking small, seemingly insignificant steps on the stairway of life.
Ransom, Ralph
