Famous quotes containing the word life:

    It has been my fate in a long life of production to be credited chiefly with the equivocal virtue of industry, a quality so excellent in morals, so little satisfactory in art.
    Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897)

    Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:
    What I aspired to be,
    And was not, comforts me:
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    Today we seek a moral basis for peace.... It cannot be a lasting peace if the fruit of it is oppression, or starvation, cruelty, or human life dominated by armed camps. It cannot be a sound peace if small nations must live in fear of powerful neighbors. It cannot be a moral peace if freedom from invasion is sold for tribute.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
