Famous quotes containing the word life:

    The old, subjective, stagnant, indolent and wretched life for woman has gone. She has as many resources as men, as many activities beckon her on. As large possibilities swell and inspire her heart.
    Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)

    Yet now farewell, and farewell life with thee!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    for a second
    Wives saw men of the explosion

    Larger than in life they managed—
    Gold as on a coin, or walking
    Somehow from the sun towards them,
    Philip Larkin (1922–1985)
