Famous quotes containing the word life:

    I am Anne Rutledge who sleep beneath these weeds,
    Beloved in life of Abraham Lincoln,
    Wedded to him, not through union,
    But through separation
    Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)

    ... a business career for a woman and her need for a woman’s life as wife and mother, are not enemies at all, unless we make them so, but may be the closest and most co-operative friends and supporter of each other.

    Those who prepared for all the emergencies of life beforehand may equip themselves at the expense of joy.
