Famous quotes containing the word life:

    They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care;
    They pursued it with forks and hope;
    They threatened its life with a railway-share
    They charmed it with smiles and soap.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    There is no going back,
    For standing still means death, and life is moving on,
    Moving on towards death. But sometimes standing still is also life.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    If I could do my life over, I would try to cleanse at least my pleasures of self-pity.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
