Nothing is known of his later career or death.

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 PĂ©lissier. Explaining her philosophy of life to her son (1949)

    Wherever art appears, life disappears.
    Francis Picabia (1878–1953)

    There is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents, each link of which hangs upon the former. The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good; and good may bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
