Famous quotes containing the word life:
“On the grey rock of Cashel I suddenly saw
A Sphinx with woman breast and lion paw,
A Buddha, hand at rest,
Hand lifted up that blest;
And right between these two a girl at play
That, it may be, had danced her life away....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Saving one human life is better than building a seven story pagoda to the Buddha.”
—Chinese proverb.
