Life Quotes
- "Great is the man who has not lost his childlike heart."
By: Mencius Life Quotes
- "I really don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive, you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, you've got to make a lot of noise, because life is the very opposite of death. And therefore, as I see it, if you're quiet, you're not living. You've got to be noisy, or at least your thoughts should be noisy and colorful and lively."
By: Mel Brooks in The Best of Bits & Pieces Life Quotes
- "My life has been one great big joke
A dance that's walked
A song that's spoke
Sometimes I laugh until I choke
When I think of myself"
By: Maya Angelou Life Quotes
- "Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: I am with you kid. Let's go."
By: Maya Angelou Life Quotes
- "Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
The world offers itself to your imagination,
Calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting--
Over and over announcing your place
In the family of things."
By: Mary Oliver Wild Geese Life Quotes
- "Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return."
By: Mary Jean Iron Life Quotes
- "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
By: Martin Luther King, Jr. Life Quotes
- "To find in ourselves what makes life worth living is risky business, for it means that once we know we must seek it. It also means that without it the life will be valueless."
By: Marsha Sinetar Life Quotes
- "Life is like a blanket too short. You pull it up and your toes rebel, you yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night."
By: Marion Howard Life Quotes
- "I trust life not because I trust the world, but because I trust the God who lives in my heart."
By: Marianne Williamson Life Quotes
- "Life is difficult. This is the great truth, one of the greatest truths--it is a great truth because once we see this truth, we transcend it."
By: M. Scott Peck Life Quotes
- "Life is little more than a loan shark: It exacts a very high rate of interest for the few pleasures it concedes."
By: Luigi Pirandello Life Quotes

By: Lisa Scully-O'Grady Life Quotes
- "There'll be two dates on your tombstone
And all your friends will read 'em
But all that's gonna matter is that little dash between 'em..."
By: Kevin Welch Life Quotes
- "The wonderful thing about books is that they allow us to enter imaginatively into someone else's life. And when we do that, we learn to sympathize with other people. But the real surprise is that we also learn truths about ourselves, about our own lives that somehow we hadn't been able to see before."
By: Katherine Patterson Life Quotes
- "Could we change our attitude, we should not only see life differently, but life itself would be different."
By: Katherine Mansfield Life Quotes
