Famous quotes containing the words life and/or talk:
“Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.”
—Henry Miller (18911980)
“Nowadays there is no conversation at all. Teachers distrust talk as much as business men.”
—Marshall McLuhan (19111980)
