Famous quotes containing the word life:
“We are doomed to cling to a life even while we find it unendurable.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“And all the great traditions of the Past
They saw reflected in the coming time.
And thus forever with reverted look
The mystic volume of the world they read,
Spelling it backward, like a Hebrew book,
Till life became a Legend of the Dead.”
