Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Life is the only art that we are required to practice without preparation, and without being allowed the preliminary trials, the failures and botches, that are essential for training.
Mumford, Lewis

2.
Life is a succession of lessons enforced by immediate reward, or, oftener, by immediate chastisement.
Dimnet, Ernest

3.
The first thing that strikes a visitor to Paris is a taxi.
Allen, Fred A.

4.
Life has a practice of living you, if you don't live it.
Larkin, Philip

5.
I think we're here for each other.
Burnett, Carol

6.
Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.
Wally'Famous'Amos

7.
The three great essentials to achieve anything worth while are: Hard work, Stick-to-itiveness, and Common sense.
Edison, Thomas A.

8.
It has always been difficult for Man to realize that his life is all an art. It has been more difficult to conceive it so than to act it so. For that is always how he has more or less acted it.
Ellis, Havelock

9.
First I was dying to finish high-school and start college. Then I was dying to finish college and start working. Next, I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school, so I could return to work. Finally, I was dying to retire. And now, I am dying

10.
The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, passion.
Boulanger, Nadia

11.
Life is a dead-end street.
Mencken, H. L.

12.
We dribble away our life, little by little, in small packages -- we don't throw it away all at once.
Cook, Robert A.

13.
Just as all thought, and primarily that of non-signification, signifies something, so there is no art that has no signification.
Camus, Albert

14.
The world's mine oyster, which I with sword will open.
William Shakespeare

15.
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

16.
If you're not in New York, you're camping out.
Dewey, Thomas E.

17.
Life is indeed difficult, partly because of the real difficulties we must overcome in order to survive, and partly because of our own innate desire to always do better, to overcome new challenges, to self-actualize. Happiness is experienced largely in striving towards a goal, not in having attained things, because our nature is always to want to go on to the next endeavor.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi

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

19.
We quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the brim -- objects press around us, filling the mind with the throng of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
Wilde, Oscar

20.
Man values life as a sacred jewel in such a way that he reveres him most who haughtily scorns it.
Platen

21.
The life of every person is like a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another.
Barrie, Sir James M.

22.
Life is not a series of gig lamps symmetrically arranged; life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end.
Woolf, Virginia

23.
I believe that life is a journey, often difficult and sometimes incredibly cruel, but we are well equipped for it if only we tap into our talents and gifts and allow them to blossom.
Brown, Les

24.
The crime problem in New York is getting really serious. The other day the Statue of Liberty had both hands up.
Leno, Jay

25.
Life is always walking up to us and saying, 'Come on in, the living's fine,' and what do we do? Back off and take its picture.
Baker, Russell (Wayne)

26.
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

27.
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

28.
Most of us fall short much more by omission than by commission. While the world perishes we go our way: purposeless, passionless, day after day.
Pilgrim, Peace

29.
In the game of life it's a good idea to have a few early losses, which relieves you of the pressure of trying to maintain an undefeated season.
Baughan, Bill

30.
I should have no objection to go over the same life from its beginning to the end: requesting only the advantage authors have, of correcting in a second edition the faults of the first.
Franklin, Benjamin

31.
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it.
Osler, Sir William

32.
Life isn't simple. But the beauty of it is, you can always start over. It'll get easier.
Alacia Bessette

33.
In the morning of life, work; in the mid day give council; in the evening, pray.
Proverb, German

34.
All that a city will ever allow you is an angle on it -- an oblique, indirect sample of what it contains, or what passes through it; a point of view.
Conrad, Peter

35.
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Camus, Albert

36.
Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward.
Frankl, Viktor E.

37.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late
Franklin, Benjamin

38.
A city is a place where there is no need to wait for next week to get the answer to a question, to taste the food of any country, to find new voices to listen to and familiar ones to listen to again.
Mead, Margaret

39.
Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

40.
The City attaches an exaggerated importance to the healing power of lunch.
Fieldes, Christopher

41.
This tattered life is my only robe; the wind my only refuge.
Mountain, Marian

42.
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

43.
The major justification for a life is the happiness and reward it brings to other lives.

44.
The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live --moreover, the only one.
Cioran, E. M.

45.
We do not look in our great cities for our best morality.
Austen, Jane

46.
Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
Hemingway, Ernest

47.
Plunge boldly into the thick of life, and seize it where you will, it is always interesting.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

48.
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

49.
You don't get to choose how you're going to die, or when. You can decide how you're going to live now.
Baez, Joan

50.
Can't nothing make your life work if you ain't the architect.
McMillan, Terry
