Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Italy is such a delightful place to live in if you happen to be a man. There one may enjoy that exquisite luxury of Socialism—that true Socialism which is based not on equality of income or character, but on the equality of manners. In the democracy of the caffè or the street the great question of our life has been solved, and the brotherhood of man is a reality. But it is accomplished at the expense of the sisterhood of women.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Art is not a treasure in the past or an importation from another land, but part of the present life of all living and creating peoples.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    There is a right according to which we may deprive a human being of his life but none according to which we may deprive him of his death: to do so is mere cruelty.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
