Life is Quotes
-
Life is no brief candle but a splendid torch made to burn ever more brightly.
Edward Dunlop
-
Life is not found in atoms or molecules or genes as such, but in organization; not in symbiosis but in synthesis.
Edwin Conklin
-
Life is a magic vase filled to the brim, so made that you cannot dip from it nor draw from it; but it overflows into the hand that drops treasures into it. Drop in malice and it overflows hate; drop in charity and it overflows love.
John Ruskin
-
Life is measured by the rapidity of change, the succession of influences that modify the being.
George Eliot
-
The opposite of a truth, is a falsehood; but the opposite of a profound truth...may be another profound truth. It either is or is not August...if I assert it's August when it isn't--simply false; but if I say that life is pain, that is true, profoundly so; so, too, that life is joy; the more profound the statement, the more reversible the deep truths are sedimented in syntax, the terms can be reversed...
Ben Lerner
-
Your life is a lot bigger than this moment. You need to remember that you can't let the trials you face right now derail your course forever.
Bree Despain
-
Life is so unlike theory.
Anthony Trollope
-
Life is not to live merely, but to live well.
Eric Lubbock, 4th Baron Avebury
-
Life is simply the reification of the process of living.
Ernst Mayr
-
Life is also busy transporting and overturning the soils of earth, the stones, and the minerals. The miles-long drifts of sea kelp that float along our coasts may carry hundreds of tons of volcanic boulders held in their roots. I have followed these streams of life over 300 km, and seen them strand on granite beaches, throwing their boulders up on a 9,000 year old pile of basalt, all the hundreds of tons of which were carried there by kelp.
Bill Mollison
-
Life is unfixed when one lives in Berlin, where one has to fight for a living. It is painfully base here. I see that a fine, free culture cannot be created under these circumstances and wish to leave as soon as I have overcome this big slump.
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
-
Life's very like a husband you know, my dear; it makes you bring forth fruit.
Elizabeth Goudge
