Best Quotes about Life
This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning; silent bare, ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie open unto the fields and to the sky; All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Wordsworth, William
Living Life Tomorrow's fate, though thou be wise, Thou canst not tell nor yet surmise; Pass, therefore, not today in vain, For it will never come again.
Khayyam, Omar
So live with men as if God saw you and speak to God, as if men heard you.
Seneca
Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.
William Shakespeare
What should I say about life? That it's long and abhors transparence.
Brodsky, Joseph
Life is a gamble at terrible odds, if it were a bet, you would not take it.
Stoppard, Tom
New York is not Mecca. It just smells like it.
Simon, Neil
The screech and mechanical uproar of the big city turns the citified head, fills citified ears -- as the song of birds, wind in the trees, animal cries, or as the voices and songs of his loved ones once filled his heart. He is sidewalk-happy.
Wright, Frank Lloyd
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it.
Osler, Sir William
Give a man a dollar and you cheer his heart. Give him a dream and you challenge his heart. Give him Christ and you change his heart. Then the dollar and the dream become meaningful to him, and to others.
Strait, C. Neil
City life is millions of people being lonesome together.
Thoreau, Henry David
Life was mostly made up of things you couldn't control, full of surprises, and they weren't always good. Life wasn't what you made it. You were what life made you.
Sara Zarr
The sublimity of wisdom is to do those things living that are desired when dying.
It is not reason which is the guide of life, but custom.
Hume, David
So in all these little ways we spin a web, a cocoon, around ourselves. The cocoon becomes nice and snug and comfortable because it is very familiar. We know every little corner of our life; we can even write poetry about it. We may also have ideas about the great mystery which religions speak of, which gives our cocoon an especial sense of security: we can worship the great mystery outside of it and feel good about that. The cocoon is safe, bounded, claustrophobic, and a little stale. We settle into it and live our lives.
Hayward, Jeremy W.
It is very certain that the desire of life prolongs it.
Byron, Lord
I found Rome brick, I left it marble.
Augustus, Caesar
What I like about cities is that everything is king size, the beauty and the ugliness.
Brodsky, Joseph
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth.
Einstein, Albert
Life is divided up into the horrible and the miserable.
Allen, Woody
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
What life means to us is determined, not so much by what life brings to us as by the attitude we bring to life; not so much by what happens to us as by our reaction to what happens.
Dunnington, Lewis L
All things atrocious and shameless flock from all parts to Rome.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius
Life at the top is financially rewarding, spiritually draining, physically exhausting, and short.
Newman, Peter C.
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.
The cities of the world are concentric, isomorphic, synchronic. Only one exists and you are always in the same one. It's the effect of their permanent revolution, their intense circulation, their instantaneous magnetism.
Baudrillard, Jean
Life is not a spectacle or a feast; it is a predicament.
Santayana, George
Life is an offensive, directed against the repetitious mechanism of the Universe.
Whitehead, Alfred North
One of the most appalling comments on our present way of life is that half of all the beds in our hospitals are reserved for patients with nervous and mental troubles, patients who have collapsed under the crushing burden of accumulated yesterdays and fearful tomorrows. Yet a vast majority of those people would be walking the streets today, leading happy, useful lives, if they had only heeded the words of Jesus: Have no anxiety about the morrow; or the words of Sir William Osler; Live in day-tight compartments.
Carnegie, Dale
Walk through life eager and open to self-improvement and that which is going to best help you evolve, because that's really why were here: to evolve as human beings.
Oprah Winfrey
Nobody's journey is seamless or smooth. We all stumble. We all have setbacks. It's just life's way of saying, "Time to change course."
Oprah Winfrey
Life does not happen to us, it happens from us.
Wickett, Michael
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.
Taken in any context, except seriously, life on earth is palatable and positively enjoyable.
Living the truth in your heart without compromise brings kindness into the world. Attempts at kindness that compromise your heart cause only sadness.
Life is a solitary cell whose walls are mirrors.
O'Neill, Eugene
Man's course begins in a garden, but it ends in a city.
Maclaren, Alexander
Life. A spiritual pickle preserving the body from decay.
Bierce, Ambrose
How could drops of water know themselves to be a river? Yet the river flows on.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De
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
Life is a zoo in a jungle.
Peter De Vries
I used to trouble about what life was for -- now being alive seems sufficient reason.
Field, Joanna
The City attaches an exaggerated importance to the healing power of lunch.
Fieldes, Christopher
Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
We Japanese enjoy the small pleasures, not extravagance. I believe a man should have a simple lifestyle -- even if he can afford more.
Ibuka, Massaru
My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone.
Foreman, George
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
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
We will neglect our cities to our peril, for in neglecting them we neglect the nation.
Kennedy, John F.
Three keys to more abundant living: caring about others, daring for others, sharing with others.
Ward, William A.
