Life Quotes (page 446)

But it is possible, it is possible: the old grief, by a great mystery of human life, gradually passes into quiet, tender joy; instead of young, ebullient blood comes a mild, serene old age: I bless the sun's rising each day and my heart sings to it as before, but now I love its setting even more, its long slanting rays, and with them quiet, mild, tender memories, dear images from the whole of a long and blessed life--and over all is God's truth, moving, reconciling, all-forgiving! Fyodor Dostoevsky
While the fates permit, live happily; life speeds on with hurried step, and with winged days the wheel of the headlong year is turned. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Garrison Keillor quote: "Thank you, dear God, for this good life and forgive us if we..."
Thank you, dear God, for this good life and forgive us if we do not love it enough. Garrison Keillor
Tom Robbins quote: "We're making it up. The world, the universe, life, reality...."
We're making it up. The world, the universe, life, reality. Especially reality. Tom Robbins
And now she was back in the world, not one she could make, but the one that had made her, and she felt herself shrinking under the early evening sky. She was weary of being outdoors, but she was not ready to go in. Was that really all there was in life, indoors or out? Wasn't there somewhere else for people to go? Ian Mcewan
I know a rock in a highland's ravine, On which only eagles might ever be seen, But a black wooden cross o'er a precipice reigns, It rots and it ages from tempests and rains. And many years have gone without any hints, From times when it was seen from faraway hills. And its every arm is raised up to the sky, As if catching clouds or going to fly. Oh, if I were able to rise there and stay, Then how I'd cry there and how I'd pray; And then I would throw off real life's chains. And live as a... Mikhail Lermontov
Maya Angelou quote: "Mother's life flowed radiant. Flourescent-tipped waves on..."
Mother's life flowed radiant. Flourescent-tipped waves on incoming tides. Maya Angelou
Every human being on the face of the earth has a steel plate in his head, but if you lie down now and then and get still as you can, it will slide open like elevator doors, letting in all the secret thoughts that have been standing around so patiently, pushing the button for a ride to the top. The real troubles in life happen when those hidden doors stay closed for too long. Sue Monk Kidd
Gustave Flaubert quote: "Do not imagine you can exorcise what oppresses you in life by..."
Do not imagine you can exorcise what oppresses you in life by giving vent to it in art. Gustave Flaubert
I'd give all the wealth that years have piled, the slow result of life's decay, To be once more a little child for one bright summer day. Lewis Carroll
It's funny how, even long after you've accepted the grief of losing someone you love and truly have gotten on with your life, every once in a while something comes up that plays "gotcha," and for a moment or tow the car tissue seperates and the wound is raw again. Mary Higgins Clark
He was well aware that of the two of three thousand times he had made love (how many times had he made love in his life?) only two or three were really essential and unforgettable. The rest were mere echoes, imitations, repetitions, or reminiscences. Milan Kundera
The things a man has heard and seen are threads of life, and if he pull them carefully from the confused distaff of memory, any who will can weave them into whatever garments of belief please them best. I too have woven my garment like another, but I shall try to keep warm in it, and shall be well content if it do not unbecome me. William Butler Yeats
Lucille Ball quote: "It doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making..."
It doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optismism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself Lucille Ball
Richard Bach quote: "I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live my life..."
I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live my life in a way that will make me happy. Richard Bach
