Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Yes, as my swift days near their goal,
    ‘Tis all that I implore—
    Through life and death, a chainless soul,
    With courage to endure!
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    In the two centuries that have passed since 1776, millions upon millions of Americans have worked and taken up arms, when necessary, to make [the American] dream a reality. We can be proud of what they have accomplished. Today, we are the world’s oldest republic. We are at peace. Our nation and our way of life endure. And we are free.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
