Famous quotes containing the word life:
“I stand in awe of my body, this matter to which I am bound has become so strange to me. I fear not spirits, ghosts, of which I am one,—that my body might,—but I fear bodies, I tremble to meet them.

“No life if it is properly realized is without its cosmic importance.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
