Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Cities [are] problems in organized complexity, like the life sciences.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)

    The stabbing horror of life is not contained in calamities and disasters, because these things wake one up and one gets very familiar and intimate with them and finally they become tame again.... No, it is more like being in a hotel room in Hoboken let us say, and just enough money in one’s pocket for another meal.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
