Famous quotes containing the word life:

    The remarkable thing is that it is the crowded life that is most easily remembered. A life full of turns, achievements, disappointments, surprises, and crises is a life full of landmarks. The empty life has even its few details blurred, and cannot be remembered with certainty.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    A child is beset with long traditions. And his infancy is so old, so old, that the mere adding of years in the life to follow will not seem to throw it further back—it is already so far.
    Alice Meynell (1847–1922)

    What is a life or two, Guy! Some people are better off dead. Like your wife and my father, for instance.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
