Famous quotes containing the words life and/or work:

    I declare
    Two lineages electrify the air,
    That will like pennons from a mast
    Fly over sleep and life and death
    Till sun is powerless to decoy
    A single seed above the earth:
    Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “As for myself, I am simply Hop-Frog, the jester—and this is my last jest.”... The Work of vengeance was complete.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
