Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “What life is best?
    Courts are but only superficial schools
    To dandle fools:
    The rural parts are turned into a den
    Of savage men:
    And where ‘s a city from all vice so free,
    But may be termed the worst of all the three?”
    —Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    “If certain, when this life was out—
    That your’s and mine, should be—
    I’d toss it yonder, like a Rind,
    And take Eternity—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “There are only two sorts of people in life you can trust—good Christians and good Communists.”
    —Joe Slovo (b. 1926)
