Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “While you here do snoring lie,
    Open-eyed conspiracy
    His time doth take.
    If of life you keep a care,
    Shake off slumber, and beware.
    Awake, Awake!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Yet they that know all things but know
    That all this life can give us is
    A child’s laughter, a woman’s kiss.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or “broken heart,” is excuse for cutting off one’s life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.”
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
