Famous quotes containing the word life:

    That man is to be pitied who cannot enjoy social intercourse without eating and drinking. The lowest orders, it is true, cannot imagine a cheerful assembly without the attractions of the table, and this reflection alone should induce all who aim at intellectual culture to endeavor to avoid placing the choicest phases of social life on such a basis.
    Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)

    A tranquil mind gives life to the flesh, but passion makes the bones rot.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 14:30.

    Poetry isn’t a profession, it’s a way of life. It’s an empty basket; you put your life into it and make something out of that.
    Mary Oliver (b. 1935)
