Life

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

Best Quotes about Life

1.
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Rexford, Eben Eugene

2.
He who allows his day to pass by without practicing generosity and enjoying life's pleasures is like a blacksmith's bellows. He breathes, but does not live.
Proverb

3.
Variability is the law of life, and as no two faces are the same, so no two bodies are alike, and no two individuals react alike and behave alike under the abnormal conditions which we know as disease.
Osler, Sir William

4.
We are born crying, live complaining, and die disappointed.
Fuller, Thomas

5.
There are four things every person has more of than they know; sins, debt, years, and foes.
Proverb, Persian

6.
Life is like wine, the longer you take to enjoy it the more chance you've got of tasting vinegar.

7.
On the whole, I am on the side of the unregenerate who affirms the worth of life as an end in itself, as against the saints who deny it.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

8.
Maxim for life: You get treated in life the way you teach people to treat you.
Dyer, Wayne

9.
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

10.
If you believed more in life you would fling yourself less to the moment.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

11.
Either these [unsaved] people are to be evangelized, or the leaven of communism and infidelity will assume such enormous proportions that it will break you in a reign of terror such as this country has never known.
Moody, Dwight L.

12.
Is life worth living? It all depends on the liver.
James, William

13.
Life is very interesting if you make mistakes.
Carpentier, Georges

14.
Life flows on within you and without you.
Harrison, George

15.
Deep down, no one really believes they have a right to live. But this death sentence generally stays tucked away, hidden beneath the difficulty of living. If that difficulty is removed from time to time, death is suddenly there, unintelligibly.
Baudrillard, Jean

16.
Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.
Wally'Famous'Amos

17.
He who is not busy being born is busy dying.
Dylan, Bob

18.
Too often man handles life as he does the bad weather, He whiles away the time as he waits for it to stop.
Polgar, Alfred

19.
Life is a rollercoaster. Try to eat a light lunch.
Schmaltz, David A.

20.
Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.
William Shakespeare

21.
Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.
Miller, Henry

22.
In between goals is a thing called life, that has to be lived and enjoyed.
Caesar, Sid

23.
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
Curie, Madame Marie

24.
A neighborhood is a residential area that is changing for the worse.
Ciardi, John

25.
The world's mine oyster, which I with sword will open.
William Shakespeare

26.
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

27.
Live as if everything you do will eventually be known.
Prather, Hugh

28.
Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act.
Truman Capote

29.
It is quite true what Philosophy says: that Life must be understood backwards. But that makes one forget the other saying: that it must be lived --forwards. The more one ponders this, the more it comes to mean that life in the temporal existence never becomes quite intelligible, precisely because at no moment can I find complete quiet to take the backward-looking position.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren

30.
A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.
Cowper, William

31.
Life is a bridge. Cross over it, but build no house on it.
Proverb, Indian

32.
Life is a campaign not a battle, and has its defeats as well as its victories.
Piatt, Don

33.
Nothing can be meaner than the anxiety to live on, to live on anyhow and in any shape; a spirit with any honor is not willing to live except in its own way, and a spirit with any wisdom is not over-eager to live at all.
Santayana, George

34.
I look upon those pitiful concretions of lime and clay which spring up, in mildewed forwardness, out of the kneaded fields about our capital... not merely with the careless disgust of an offended eye, not merely with sorrow for a desecrated landscape, but with a painful foreboding that the roots of our national greatness must be deeply cankered when they are thus loosely struck in their native ground. The crowded tenements of a struggling and restless population differ only from the tents of the Arab or the Gipsy by their less healthy openness to the air of heaven, and less happy choice of their spot of earth; by their sacrifice of liberty without the gain of rest, and of stability without the luxury of change.
Ruskin, John

35.
No city should be too large for a man to walk out of in a morning.
Connolly, Cyril

36.
A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs...
Epicurus

37.
The life of every person is like a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another.
Barrie, Sir James M.

38.
But look what we have built low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace. Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums. Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.
Jacobs, Jane

39.
People should always have something which they prefer to life.
Seume, Johann G.

40.
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

41.
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

42.
Life is a foreign language; all men mispronounce it.
Christopher Morley

43.
Not where I breathe, but where I love, I live; Not where I love, but where I am, I die.
Southey, Robert

44.
The game of life is a game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later with astounding accuracy.
Shinn, Florence Scovel

45.
Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Die, search for meaning, search for meaning, search for meaning.
Horton, Doug

46.
Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.
Lawrence, D. H.

47.
Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it.
Lehrer, Tom

48.
The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.
Carlyle, Thomas

49.
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.

50.
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
