Conscious Life

Famous quotes containing the words conscious and/or life:

“With each divine impulse the mind rends the thin rinds of the visible and finite, and comes out into eternity, and inspires and expires its air. It converses with truths that have always been spoken in the world, and becomes conscious of a closer sympathy with Zeno and Arrian, than with persons in the house.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“I made up my mind long ago that life was too short to do anything for myself that I could pay others to do for me.”
