Famous quotes containing the word life:

    ... the great mistake of the reformers is to believe that life begins and ends with health, and that happiness begins and ends with a full stomach and the power to enjoy physical pleasures, even of the finer kind.
    Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    Most of one’s life is one prolonged effort to prevent oneself thinking.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Life isn’t meant to be easy. It’s hard to take being on the top—or on the bottom. I guess I’m something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things.... Life is one crisis after another.
    Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
