Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Remember the rights of the savage, as we call him. Remember that the happiness of his humble home, remember that the sanctity of life in the hill villages of Afghanistan, among the winter snows, is as inviolable in the eye of Almighty God, as can be your own.
    —W.E. (William Ewart)

    Our life seems not present, so much as prospective; not for the affairs on which it is wasted, but as a hint of this vast- flowing vigor.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The man nearest my soul,
    Who like a brother toiled in my affairs,
    And laid his love and life under my foot.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
