Life

If God exists and we are made in his image we can have real meaning, and we can have real knowledge through what he has communicated to us.
- Schaeffer, Francis
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.
Refrain from asking what going to happen tomorrow, and everyday that fortune grants you, count as gain.
Horace

3.
A large city cannot be experientially known; its life is too manifold for any individual to be able to participate in it.
Huxley, Aldous

4.
Best to live lightly, unthinkingly.
Sophocles

5.
The art of mastering life is the prerequisite for all further forms of expression, whether they are paintings, sculptures, tragedies, or musical compositions.
Klee, Paul

6.
If you're not in New York, you're camping out.
Dewey, Thomas E.

7.
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

8.
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

9.
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life... I wanted to live so sturdily and so Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life... to drive life into a corner to know it by experience and be able to give an account of it in my next excursion.
Thoreau, Henry David

10.
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.

11.
This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in.
Dickens, Charles

12.
Life is a bridge. Cross over it, but build no house on it.
Proverb, Indian

13.
A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.
Cowper, William

14.
Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

15.
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

16.
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

17.
Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway.
Coallier, Steven

18.
Life in the Fast Lane Playing in Traffic intense stressful challenging overwhelming fulfilling demanding exciting nerve-wrecking entrepreneurial unrelenting empowered exposed: no place to hide flexible confusing results compensation sweatshop team ascendancy ego suppression flat organizations who's my boss no titles no status customer focus self-abnegation decentralized decision making chaos the end of tenure the end of security no complacency fear ongoing change burnout

19.
In the early days of the Indian Territory, there were no such things as birth certificates. You being there was certificate enough.
Rogers, Will

20.
It is in the thirties that we want friends. In the forties we know they won't save us any more than love did.

21.
The finest lives in my opinion are the common model, without miracle and without extravagance.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

22.
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)

23.
Life is like eating artichokes, you have got to go through so much to get so little.
Dorgan, Thomas A.

24.
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

25.
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.

26.
It's not how long life is but the quality of our life that is important.
Dawson, Roger

27.
It is faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth looking at.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

28.
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Brecht, Bertolt

29.
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

30.
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

31.
We come into this world head first and go out feet first; in between, it is all a matter of balance.
Boese, Paul

32.
Live, let live, and help live
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

33.
Every morning I wake up saying, I'm still alive; a miracle. And so I keep on pushing.
Cousteau, Jacques

34.
No city should be too large for a man to walk out of in a morning.
Connolly, Cyril

35.
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

36.
The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness.
Yogi, Maharishi Mahesh

37.
She fights and vanquishes in me, and I live and breathe in her, and I have life and being.
Cervantes, Miguel De

38.
Life is supposed to get tough.
Grammer, Kelsey

39.
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

40.
Life is not always not always what one wants it to be., but to make the best of it as it is the only way of being happy.
Churchill, Jennie Jerome

41.
It is not the years in your life but the life in your years that counts!
Stevenson, Adlai E.

42.
Life is a classroom in which each of us is being tested, tried, and passed.
Thibodeau, Robert

43.
If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.
Delacroix, Eugene

44.
Every man has the right to risk his own life in order to save it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

45.
Life is at its best when it's shaken and stirred.
Facult, F. Paul

46.
You really haven't changed, you've just become more of yourself. That is really what were all trying to do: become more of ourselves.
Oprah Winfrey

47.
People do not live nowadays. They get about 10% out of life.
Duncan, Isadora

48.
I used to trouble about what life was for -- now being alive seems sufficient reason.
Field, Joanna

49.
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

50.
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
