Famous quotes containing the word life:

    There’s night and day, brother, both sweet things; sun, moon, and stars, brother, all sweet things; there’s likewise a wind on the heath. Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die?
    George Borrow (1803–1881)

    When Philosophy with its abstractions paints grey in grey, the freshness and life of youth has gone, the reconciliation is not a reconciliation in the actual, but in the ideal world.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel, will save it.
