Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Show me a character whose life arouses my curiosity, and my flesh begins crawling with suspense.
    Fawn M. Brodie (1915–1981)

    Today we seek a moral basis for peace.... It cannot be a lasting peace if the fruit of it is oppression, or starvation, cruelty, or human life dominated by armed camps. It cannot be a sound peace if small nations must live in fear of powerful neighbors. It cannot be a moral peace if freedom from invasion is sold for tribute.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
