Best Quotes about Life
We do not look in our great cities for our best morality.
Austen, Jane
Do not take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive.
Hubbard, Elbert
Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.
Lawrence, D. H.
Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Samuel Butler
Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway.
Coallier, Steven
Life -- how curious is that habit that makes us think it is not here, but elsewhere.
Pritchett, V. S.
Life is a great surprise. I don't see why death should not be an even greater one.
Nabokov, Vladimir
I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I have just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.
Ackerman, Diane
Not where I breathe, but where I love, I live; Not where I love, but where I am, I die.
Southey, Robert
One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.
We are born crying, live complaining, and die disappointed.
Fuller, Thomas
Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it.
Lehrer, Tom
Life is an offensive, directed against the repetitious mechanism of the Universe.
Whitehead, Alfred North
Cities, like cats, will reveal themselves at night.
Brooke, Rupert
Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others
Keller, Helen
Life, we learn too late, is in the living, the tissue of every day and hour.
Leacock, Stephen B.
No one knows when they are well off.
Punch
Life has taught me that it is not for our faults that we are disliked and even hated, but for our qualities.
Berenson, Bernard
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
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
Aristotle
To live is not breathing it is action.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
So live with men as if God saw you and speak to God, as if men heard you.
Seneca
Life is not so bad if you have plenty of luck, a good physique and not too much imagination
Isherwood, Christopher
We never live, but we hope to live; and as we are always arranging to be happy, it must be that we never are so.
Pascal, Blaise
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
Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
Saroyan, William
What is a city, but the people; true the people are the city.
Coriolanus III
We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it.
Osler, Sir William
In the early days of the Indian Territory, there were no such things as birth certificates. You being there was certificate enough.
Rogers, Will
Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: I'm with you kid. Let's go.
Angelou, Maya
Best to live lightly, unthinkingly.
Sophocles
Only those live who do good.
Tolstoy, Count Leo
Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.
Sartre, Jean-Paul
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
Life is a state of mind.
Warden, Jack
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
New York, the nation's thyroid gland.
Morley, Christopher
Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead, that is where your future lies.
Landers, Ann
Life is a campaign not a battle, and has its defeats as well as its victories.
Piatt, Don
When in Rome, do as Rome does.
Bierce, Ambrose
Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.
Raban, Jonathan
I have never felt salvation in nature. I love cities above all.
Michelangelo
Cities are distinguished by the catastrophic forms they presuppose and which are a vital part of their essential charm. New York is King Kong, or the blackout, or vertical bombardment: Towering Inferno. Los Angeles is the horizontal fault, California breaking off and sliding into the Pacific: Earthquake.
Baudrillard, Jean
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
Brecht, Bertolt
We have long forgotten the ritual by which the house of our life was erected. But when it is under assault and enemy bombs are already taking their toll, what enervated, perverse antiquities do they not lay bare in the foundations.
Benjamin, Walter
Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.
Brendan Gill
This is what you shall do: love the earth and sun, and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence towards the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown, or to any man or number of men; go freely with the powerful uneducated persons, and with the young, and mothers, of families: read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life: re-examine all you have been told at school or church, or in any books, and dismiss whatever insults your soul.
Whitman, Walt
Life never becomes a habit to me. It's always a marvel.
Mansfield, Katherine
The life of man is a long march through the night, surrounded by invisible foes, tortured by weariness and pain, towards a goal that few can hope to reach, and where none may tarry long.
Russell, Bertrand
Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Search for meaning, eat, sleep. Die, search for meaning, search for meaning, search for meaning.
Horton, Doug
