Famous quotes containing the words life and/or death:

    The writing career is not a romantic one. The writer’s life may be colorful, but his work itself is rather drab.
    Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    Perhaps it is nothingness which is real and our dream which is non-existent, but then we feel think that these musical phrases, and the notions related to the dream, are nothing too. We will die, but our hostages are the divine captives who will follow our chance. And death with them is somewhat less bitter, less inglorious, perhaps less probable.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
