Famous quotes containing the words everyday life, everyday and/or life:

    “Nature’s law says that the strong must prevent the weak from living, but only in a newspaper article or textbook can this be packaged into a comprehensible thought. In the soup of everyday life, in the mixture of minutia from which human relations are woven, it is not a law. It is a logical incongruity when both strong and weak fall victim to their mutual relations, unconsciously subservient to some unknown guiding power that stands outside of life, irrelevant to man.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    ““... You could sit there with the stains on your shoes
    Of the fresh earth from your own baby’s grave
    And talk about your everyday concerns.
    You had stood the spade up against the wall
    Outside there in the entry, for I saw it.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Sometimes I think of life as a process where everybody is discouraging and taking everybody else down a peg or two.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
