Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Inexpressibly beautiful appears the recognition by man of the least natural fact, and the allying his life to it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When this ring
    Parts from this finger, then parts life from hence.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I had this advantage, at least, in my mode of life, over those who were obliged to look abroad for amusement, to society and the theatre, that my life itself was become my amusement and never ceased to be novel. It was a drama of many scenes and without an end.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
