Famous quotes containing the word life:
“Do you know, Valerio, that even the least among all humans is so great that life is far too short to love him?”

“To drift with every passion till my soul
Is a stringed lute on which all winds can play,
Is it for this that I have given away
Mine ancient wisdom, and austere control?
Methinks my life is a twice-written scroll
Scrawled over on some boyish holiday”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
