E. E. Cummings - Life

Life

i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes

“ ” From "i thank You God for most this amazing" (1950)

Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “It is no small mischief to a boy, that many of the best years of his life should be devoted to the learning of what can never be of any real use to any human being. His mind is necessarily rendered frivolous and superficial by the long habit of attaching importance to words instead of things; to sound instead of sense.”
    —William Cobbett (1762–1835)

    “Life is the desert, life the solitude,
    Death joins us to the great majority.”
    —Edward Young (1683–1765)

    “He did not live, he observed life from a window, and too often was inclined to content himself with no more than what his friends told him they saw when they looked out of a window.... In the end the point of Henry James is neither his artistry nor his seriousness, but his personality, and this was curious and charming and a trifle absurd.”
    —W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
