Life Ending Quotes (page 26)

His death had been as futile as his life. He died ingloriously, of a stupid disease, failing once more, even at the end, to accomplish anything. W. Somerset Maugham
My whole wretched life swam before my weary eyes, and I realized no matter what you do it's bound to be a waste of time in the end so you might as well go mad. Jack Kerouac
However passionate, sinning, and rebellious the heart hidden in the tomb, the flowers growing over it peep serenely at us with their innocent eyes; they tell us not of eternal peace alone, of that great peace of "indifferent" nature: they tell us, too, of eternal reconciliation and of life without end. Ivan Turgenev
Oh, it's delightful to have ambitions. I'm so glad I have such a lot. And there never seems to be any end to them-- that's the best of it. Just as soon as you attain to one ambition you see another one glittering higher up still. It does make life so interesting. L. M. Montgomery
George Eliot quote: "Every man's work, pursued steadily, tends to become an end in..."
Every man's work, pursued steadily, tends to become an end in itself, and so to bridge over the loveless chasms of his life. George Eliot
Dr. Seuss quote: "Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of..."
Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Dr. Seuss
If your banker breaks, you snap; if your apothecary by mistake sends you poison in your pills, you die. True, you may say that, by exceeding caution, you may possibly escape these and the multitudinous other evil chances of life. But handle Queequeg's monkey-rope heedfully as I would, sometimes he jerked it so, that I came very near sliding overboard. Nor could I possibly forget that, do what I would, I only had the management of one end of it. Herman Melville
Henry David Thoreau quote: "Don't get to the end of your life and realize you have never..."
Don't get to the end of your life and realize you have never lived. Henry David Thoreau
He worked for two hours, perfecting the storyline-the situation, the setup, the punchline. After changing her tire and practicing macho lines to impress her, Macintosh ended up with five dollars, a stutter, and soaked shoes as Veronica zoomed out of his life. Nora Roberts
The invention of print, however, made it easier to manipulate public opinion, and the film and the radio carried the process further. With the development of television, and the technical advance which made it possible to receive and transmit simultaneously on the same instrument, private life came to an end. George Orwell
There are no rules when it comes to love. I just try to let love surprise me because you never know who you’re going to fall in love with. You never know who’s going to come into your life – and for me, when I picture the person I want to end up with, I don’t think about what their career is, or what they look like. I picture the feeling I get when I’m with them. Taylor Swift
You must not think that I feel, in spite of it having ended in such defeat, that my "life has been wasted" here, or that I would exchange it with that of anyone I know. Isak Dinesen
You've got so much up ahead. You'll make new friends. You should see your kids and wife. And I'd end up saying have no fear. These are nowhere near the best years of your life Brad Paisley
Baltasar Gracian quote: "Oh life, you should never had begun, but since you did, you..."
Oh life, you should never had begun, but since you did, you should never end Baltasar Gracian
A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the highest virtues of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means. Thomas Jefferson
