Famous quotes containing the word life:
“I think it beats the heck out of life after death, that’s for sure.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
“The logic of worldly success rests on a fallacy: the strange error that our perfection depends on the thoughts and opinions and applause of other men! A weird life it is, indeed, to be living always in somebody else’s imagination, as if that were the only place in which one could at last become real!”
—Thomas Merton (1915–1968)
