Famous quotes containing the word life:
“The stabbing horror of life is not contained in calamities and disasters, because these things wake one up and one gets very familiar and intimate with them and finally they become tame again.... No, it is more like being in a hotel room in Hoboken let us say, and just enough money in one’s pocket for another meal.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“I long ago come to the conclusion that all life is six to five against.”
—Damon Runyon (1884–1946)
