Life Quotes (page 279)

I never seem to know what's going on... Right from the very start, my life has been strange. I think I know what happened... I must have missed all the rehearsals. Charles M. Schulz
...if we were to name the most powerful assumption of all, which leads one on and on in an attempt to understand life, it is that all things are made of atoms, and that everything that living things do can be understood in terms of the jigglings and wigglings of atoms. Richard P. Feynman
George R. R. Martin quote: "You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that...."
You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that. I have met so few of them in my life. George R. R. Martin
We are guilty of many errors and many faults, but our worst crime is abandoning the children, neglecting the fountain of life. Many of the things we need can wait. The child cannot. Right now is the time his bones are being formed, his blood is being made, and his senses are being developed. To him we cannot answer ‘Tomorrow,’ his name is today. Gabriela Mistral
You may glory in a team triumphant, but you fall in love with a team in defeat. Losing after great striving is the story of man, who was born to sorrow, whose sweetest songs tell of saddest thought, and who, if he is a hero, does nothing in life as becomingly as leaving it. Roger Kahn
Alija Izetbegovic quote: "Nonetheless, out of a life of 60 or 70 years, three years is..."
Nonetheless, out of a life of 60 or 70 years, three years is more than a thousand days and a thousand nights Alija Izetbegovic
Milan Kundera quote: "If we have only one life to live, we might as well not have..."
If we have only one life to live, we might as well not have lived at all. Milan Kundera
The things here are stronger--the things that differentiate us from one another are too powerful. The common interest is no longer decisive. It has broken up already and given place to the interest of the individual. Now and then something still will shine through from that other time when we all wore the same rig, but already it is dwindled and dim. These others here are still our comrades and yet our comrades no longer--that is what is so sad. All else went west in the war, but comradeship... Erich Maria Remarque
Henry David Thoreau quote: "Here is life, an experiment to a great extent untried by me."
Here is life, an experiment to a great extent untried by me. Henry David Thoreau
Unlike him I had been unable to escape into the simple complexities of science. All he had to do was solve the mystery of the universe, which may be difficult but is not as difficult as living an ordinary life...(How happy scientists are! Why didn't we become scientists, Percival? They confront problems which can be solved. We don't know what we confront. Does it have a name?) Walker Percy
He alienated his friends in the sciences by thanking them extravagantly for scientific advances he had read about in the recent newspapers and magazines, by assuring them, with a perfectly straight face, that life was getting better and better, thanks to scientific thinking. Kurt Vonnegut
Where does a story truly begin? In life, there are seldom clear-cut beginnings, those moments when we can, in looking back, say that everything started. Yet there are moments when fate intersects with our daily lives, setting in motion a sequence of events whose outcome we could never have foreseen. Nicholas Sparks
Death is my son-in-law. Death is my heir. My daughter he hath wedded. I will die, And leave him all. Life, living, all is Death’s. William Shakespeare
The more you learn, the less you fear. "Learn" not in the sense of academic study, but in the practical understanding of life. Julian Barnes
I don't think it's a question of liking or disliking it," Tengo said..."It was the one thing he was best at." "Hmm. I see," Kumi said. She pondered this. "But that might very well be the best way to live your life. Haruki Murakami
