Famous quotes containing the word life:
“My life has been one great big joke,
A dance that’s walked
A song that’s spoke,
I laugh so hard I almost choke
When I think about myself.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
“Among the smaller duties of life I hardly know any one more important than that of not praising where praise is not due.”
