Famous quotes containing the word life:

    If it is asserted that civilization is a real advance in the condition of man,—and I think that it is, though only the wise improve their advantages,—it must be shown that it has produced better dwellings without making them more costly; and the cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Every life has a love story, even though the beloved may be imaginary, or a cat.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
