:: 10 Quotes of the Moment |
 |
They that have lived a single day have lived an age.
~
Jean De La Bruyere - [Life and Living]
|
|
To live lightheartedly but not recklessly; to be gay without being boisterous; to be courageous without being bold; to show trust and cheerful resignation without fatalism -- this is the art of living.
~
Jean De La Fontaine - [Life and Living]
|
|
Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead, that is where your future lies.
~
Ann Landers - [Life and Living]
|
|
Life has a practice of living you, if you don't live it.
~
Philip Larkin - [Life and Living]
|

We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn't matter so much as it seemed to do -- it's not so burningly important, after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the Ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over the promontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves, then we drop in the ocean on the other side: and the little transit doesn't matter so much.
~
D. H. Lawrence - [Life and Living]

Life, we learn too late, is in the living, the tissue of every day and hour.
~
Stephen B. Leacock - [Life and Living]

Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.
~
Denis Leary - [Life and Living]

|
Life is something you do when you can't get to sleep.
~
Fran Lebowitz - [Life and Living]
|
|
People find life entirely too time-consuming.
~
Stanislaw J. Lec - [Life and Living]
|
|
Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it.
~
Tom Lehrer - [Life and Living]
