Famous quotes containing the word life:
“The life of pleasure breeds boredom. The life of duty breeds resentment.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The child-rearing years are relatively short in our increased life span. It is hard for young women caught between diapers and formulas to believe, but there are years and years of freedom ahead. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I’d relaxed, allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl’s eyes.”
—Eda Le Shan (20th century)
