Life is not a thing of knowing only nay, mere knowledge has properly no place at all save as it becomes the handmaiden of feeling and emotion.
Billings Learned Hand
Life is made up of constant calls to action, and we seldom have time for more than hastily contrived answers.
Billings Learned Hand
I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is I can't find anybody who can tell me what they want.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens
Cities all over the world are getting bigger as more and more people move from rural to urban sites, but that has created enormous problems with respect to environmental pollution and the general quality of life.
Alan Dundes
If you want happiness for a lifetime - help the next generation.
Chinese Proverbs
If I were asked to chose between execution and life in prison I would, of course, chose the latter. Its better to live somehow than not at all.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle.
Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill
Everything that makes diversity of kinds, of species, differences, properties everything that consists in generation, decay, alteration and change is not an entity, but a condition and circumstance of entity and being, which is one, infinite, immobile, subject, matter, life, death, truth, lies, good and evil.
Giordano Bruno
Mankind has conceived history as a series of battles; hitherto it has considered fighting as the main thing in life.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
While the sick man has life, there is hope.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Life inspires more dread than death it is life which is the great unknown.
Emil Cioran
Life is possible only by the deficiencies of our imagination and memory.
Emil Cioran
If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself, then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy. Do not surrender to fate after a single failure. Failure, at most, precedes success.
Sri Chinmoy
Life is nothing but the expansion of love. We can cultivate divine love by entering into the Source. The Source is God, who is all Love.
Sri Chinmoy
Not only is suicide a sin, it is the sin. It is the ultimate and absolute evil, the refusal to take an interest in existence; the refusal to take the oath of loyalty to life. The man who kills a man, kills a man. The man who kills himself, kills all men. As far as he is concerned he wipes out the world.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
