Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “These people in high life have too much presence of mind, I believe, to seem disconcerted, or out of humour, however they may feel: for had I been the person of the most consequence in the room, I could not have met with more attention and respect.”
    —Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    “I think your whole life shows in your face and you should be proud of that.”
    —Lauren Bacall (b. 1924)
