Famous quotes containing the word life:

    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)

    Yes, as my swift days near their goal,
    ‘Tis all that I implore—
    Through life and death, a chainless soul,
    With courage to endure!
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    For some men the power to destroy life becomes the equivalent to the female power to create life.
    Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 4 (1991)
