Life Quotes (page 818)

Every person has one particular time in his life when he is more beautiful than he is ever going to be again. For some it is at seven, for others at seventeen or seventy, and as Laura Fleischman read out loud from Shakespeare, I remember thinking that for her it was probably just then. Frederick Buechner
How she hated words, always coming between her and her life: they did the ravishing, if anything did: ready-made words and phrases, sucking all the live-sap out of living things. David Herbert Lawrence
Percy Bysshe Shelley quote: "Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep - He hath..."
Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep - He hath awakened from the dream of life Percy Bysshe Shelley
Mitch Albom quote: "and that is what heaven is for. For understanding your life on..."
and that is what heaven is for. For understanding your life on earth. Mitch Albom
We humans look rather different from a tree. Without a doubt we perceive the world differently than a tree does. But down deep, at the molecular heart of life, the trees and we are essentially identical. Carl Sagan
Mitch Albom quote: "No life is a waste.. The only thing we waste is the time we..."
No life is a waste.. The only thing we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone. Mitch Albom
I want to be a more serious-minded Christian, more detached from this world, more ready for heaven than I have ever been in my whole life. I want an ear that is sharp to know the voice of the enemy, whether it comes from religion, politics, or philosophy ... I would rather stand and have everybody my enemy than to go along with the crowd to destruction. Do you feel that way? Aiden Wilson Tozer
Willa Cather quote: "Montaigne says somewhere that in early youth the joy of life..."
Montaigne says somewhere that in early youth the joy of life lies in the feet. Willa Cather
Other people - store clerks, burger flippers, software engineers, the whole vocabulary of meaningless jobs that make up Life in America - other people just rely on plain old competition. Better flip your burgers or debug your subroutines faster than your high school classmate two blocks down the strip is flipping or debugging, because we're in competition with those guys, and people notice these things. What a fucking rat race that is. Neal Stephenson
Joseph Chilton Pearce quote: "To live a creative life we must forget our fear of being wrong."
To live a creative life we must forget our fear of being wrong. Joseph Chilton Pearce
Salman Rushdie quote: "He returned to Cambridge feeling, at the ripe old age of..."
He returned to Cambridge feeling, at the ripe old age of twenty, that life was passing him by. Salman Rushdie
This life is a hospital where every patient is possessed with the desire to change beds; one man would like to suffer in front of the stove, and another believes that he would recover his health beside the window. Charles Baudelaire
Only yesterday I was no different than them, yet I was saved. I am explaining to you the way of life of a people who say every sort of wicked thing about me because I sacrificed their friendship to gain my own soul. I left the dark paths of their duplicity and turned my eyes toward the light where there is salvation, truth, and justice. They have exiled me now from their society, yet I am content. Mankind only exiles the one whose large spirit rebels against injustice and tyranny. He who does... Khalil Gibran
I had that feeling you have when you're watching a sad movie, sobbing at the heartbreak you are feeling at the same time that you know the heartbreak isn't exactly real, that it will be gone by the time you get home and make a cup of tea. I found a lot of life like that when I was younger, as though I was practicing for what came later. A. Whitney Brown
It is impossible that a town will not play a part in your life, it does not even make much difference whether you have more good or bad things to say of it, it draws your mind to it, by a mental law of gravitation. Isak Dinesen
