Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Since moons decay and suns decline,
    How else should end this life of mine?
    John Masefield (1878–1967)

    As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
