Famous quotes containing the word life:

    That’s playgirl stuff, Brownie. I’ve seen them in London, Paris, Rome. They start life in a New York nightclub and end up covering the world like a paid advertisement. Not an honest feeling from her kneecap to her neck.
    John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)

    Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 10:39.

    Jesus.

    Die two months ago, and not forgotten yet? Then there’s hope
    a great man’s memory may outlive his life half a year.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
