Life

Every morning I wake up saying, I'm still alive; a miracle. And so I keep on pushing.
- Cousteau, Jacques
Life Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Life

1.
Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.
Frankl, Viktor E.

2.
Life is just a journey
Diana, Princess of Wales

3.
Life is not a matter of place, things or comfort; rather, it concerns the basic human rights of family, country, justice and human dignity.
Marcos, Imelda

4.
People do not live nowadays. They get about 10% out of life.
Duncan, Isadora

5.
Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.
Miller, Henry

6.
People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I think that what we're really seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.
Campbell, Joseph

7.
Life is a disease; and the only difference between one man and another is the stage of the disease at which he lives. You are always at the crisis: I am always in the convalescent stage.
Shaw, George Bernard

8.
Life, we learn too late, is in the living, the tissue of every day and hour.
Leacock, Stephen B.

9.
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
Harris, Sidney J.

10.
This also -- that I live, I consider a gift of God.
Ovid

11.
All of life is a foreign country.
Kerouac, Jack

12.
We come into this world head first and go out feet first; in between, it is all a matter of balance.
Boese, Paul

13.
Life is a foreign language: all men mispronounce it.
Morley, Christopher

14.
Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one's will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them.
Gauguin, Paul

15.
What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.
Brodsky, Joseph

16.
The drama of life begins with a wail and ends with a sigh.
Antrim, Minna

17.
Life is really about a spiritual unfolding that is personal and enchanting -- an unfolding that no science or philosophy or religion has yet fully clarified.
Redfield, James

18.
The life of man is a journey; a journey that must be traveled, however bad the roads or the accommodation.
Goldsmith, Oliver

19.
It is vanity to desire a long life and to take no heed of a good life.
Kempis, Thomas

20.
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.

21.
To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

22.
Do not take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive.
Hubbard, Elbert

23.
Life is difficult and complicated and beyond anyone's total control, and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
J.K. Rowling

24.
Life is a little gleam of time between two eternity s.
Carlyle, Thomas

25.
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

26.
Life is a fatal complaint, and an eminently contagious one.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

27.
Any city however small, is in fact divided into two, one the city of the poor, the other of the rich. These are at war with one another.
Plato

28.
Three keys to more abundant living: caring about others, daring for others, sharing with others.
Ward, William A.

29.
Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
Curie, Madame Marie

30.
And so from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe, and then, from hour to hour,we rot and rot; and thereby hangs a tale.
William Shakespeare

31.
If I shall sell both my forenoons and afternoons to society, as most appear to do, I'm sure that, for me, there would be nothing left worth living for.
Thoreau, Henry David

32.
Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

33.
For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. [James 4:14]
Bible

34.
The life of every person is like a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another.
Barrie, Sir James M.

35.
Prepare for death, if here at night you roam, and sign your will before you sup from home.
Johnson, Samuel

36.
Life itself is the proper binge.
Child, Julia

37.
To live lightheartedly but not recklessly; to be gay without being boisterous; to be courageous without being bold; to show trust and cheerful resignation without fatalism -- this is the art of living.
La Fontaine, Jean De

38.
We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking. In that race which daily hastens us towards death, the body maintains its irreparable lead.
Camus, Albert

39.
The best things in life are never rationed. Friendship, loyalty, and love. They do not require coupons.
Hewitt, George T.

40.
Life -- No, I've nothing to teach you about it for the moment. May be writing about it another week.
Forster, Edward M.

41.
We will neglect our cities to our peril, for in neglecting them we neglect the nation.
Kennedy, John F.

42.
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

43.
A city is a large community where people are lonesome together.
Prochnow, Herbert

44.
We all live in suspense from day to day; in other words, you are the hero of your own story.
Mccarthy, Mary

45.
To live is to go on a journey; to die is to come back home.

46.
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

47.
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

48.
There is more sophistication and less sense in New York than anywhere else on the globe.
Herold, Don

49.
Birth, copulation and death. That's all the facts when you come to the brass tacks.
Eliot, T. S.

50.
Life is just one damned thing after another.
Elbert Hubbard
