Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Our life is March weather, savage and serene in one hour.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    For Jeremy, direct, unmediated experience was always hard to take in, always more or less disquieting. Life became safe, things assumed meaning, only when they had been translated into words and confined between the covers of a book.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    The striking point about our model family is not simply the compete-compete, consume-consume style of life it urges us to follow.... The striking point, in the face of all the propaganda, is how few Americans actually live this way.
    Louise Kapp Howe (b. 1934)
