Famous quotes containing the word life:

    If I could do my life over, I would try to cleanse at least my pleasures of self-pity.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    For me, the principal fact of life is the free mind. For good and evil, man is a free creative spirit. This produces the very queer world we live in, a world in continuous creation and therefore continuous change and insecurity. A perpetually new and lively world, but a dangerous one, full of tragedy and injustice. A world in everlasting conflict between the new idea and the old allegiances, new arts and new inventions against the old establishment.
    Joyce Cary (1888–1957)

    Yes, as my swift days near their goal,
    ‘Tis all that I implore—
    Through life and death, a chainless soul,
    With courage to endure!
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)
