Your Life Quotes (page 87)

Live as long as you may, the first twenty years are the longest half of your life. They appear so while they are passing; they seem to have been so when we look back on them; and they take up more room in our memory than all the years that succeed them. Robert Southey
His beard was all colors, a grove of trees in autumn, deep brown and fire-orange and wine-red, an untrimmed tangle across the lower half of his face. His cheeks were apple-red. He looked like a friend; like someone you had known all your life. Neil Gaiman
You live your life at the time you live it -- you don't have much of an overview when what's happening to you is still happening. John Irving
You don’t have to know a lot of things for your life to make a lasting difference in the world. But you do have to know the few great things that matter, perhaps just one, and then be willing to live for them and die for them. The people that make a durable difference in the world are not the people who have mastered many things, but who have been mastered by one great thing. John Piper
Stephen Dunn quote: "There are always the simple events of your life that you might..."
There are always the simple events of your life that you might try to convert into legend. Stephen Dunn
I will say it one last time: Demonation! The feeling of it! There are no words -how can there be?- to describe what it feels like to become words, to feel your life encoded, and laid out in black ink on white paper. All my love and hatred, melted into words. It was like the End of the World. Clive Barker
[about suicide] And why is it the biggest sin of all? All your life you're told that you'll be going to this marvellous place when you pass on. And the one thing you can do to get you there a bit quicker is something that stops you getting there at all. Oh, I can see that it's a kind of queuejumping. But if someone jumps the queue at the Post Office, people tut. Or sometimes they say, “Excuse me, I was here first.” They don't say, “You will be consumed by hellfire for all eternity.” That... Nick Hornby
You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter. Nicholas Sparks
Sri Chinmoy quote: "Do you want to be happy? Then make your life as soulfully..."
Do you want to be happy? Then make your life as soulfully simple As sleeplessly breathing. Sri Chinmoy
It just goes to show you: you can put nine thousand miles between you and another person. You can make a vow to never speak his name. You can surgically remove someone from your life. And still, he’ll haunt you. Jodi Picoult
Margaret Mitchell quote: "Take my handkerchief, Scarlett. Never, at any crisis of your..."
Take my handkerchief, Scarlett. Never, at any crisis of your life, have I knownyou to have a handkerchief. Margaret Mitchell
...but you live your life at the time you live it—you don’t have much of an overview when what’s happening to you is still happening. John Irving
So instead of feeling sorry for yourself, realize that your life, just like a developing child's, has phases--and now you're in the mommy phase. Laura Schlessinger
She thought of death like the seam of a hem: each time you lose someone close, it unraveled a little. You could still go along with your life, but you'd be forever tripping over something you previously took for granted. Jodi Picoult
Bill Copeland quote: "The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your..."
The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score. Bill Copeland
