Famous quotes containing the word life:

    It is sweet to dance to violins
    When Love and Life are fair:
    To dance to flutes, to dance to lutes
    Is delicate and rare:
    But it is not sweet with nimble feet
    To dance upon the air!
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    As life runs on, the road grows strange
    With faces new,—and near the end
    The milestones into headstones change,
    ‘Neath every one a friend.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 12:15.
