Famous quotes containing the word life:
“There mark what ills the scholars life assail,
Toil, envy, want, the patron, and the gaol.”
—Samuel Johnson (17091784)
“We are all of us resigned to death: its life we arent resigned to.”
—Graham Greene (19041991)
“When man has neither the strength to subdue his underworld powerswhich are really the ancient powers of his old, superseded self; nor the wit to placate them with sacrifice and the burnt holocaust; then they come back at him, and destroy him again. Hence every new conquest of life means a harrowing of Hell.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
