Famous quotes containing the word life:
“There was something so free and self-contained about him, something in the young fellow’s movements, that made that officer aware of him. And this irritated the Prussian. He did not choose to be touched into life by his servant.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

For changes wrought on form and face;
No lower life that earth’s embrace
May breed with him can fright my faith.”
