Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “If you’re lucky, you have money. That’s why it’s better to be born lucky than rich. If you’re rich, you can always lose your money, but if you’re lucky, you’ll always get more money.”
    —Anthony Pélissier. Explaining her philosophy of life to her son (1949)

    “The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all.... I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.”
    —Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

    “Yet come to me in dreams that I may live
    My very life again though cold in death:
    Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
    Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
    Speak low, lean low,
    As long ago, my love, how long ago.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
