Life Thread

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or thread:

    I never read a novel, they have so little real life and thought in them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Oh sure, everyone goes back to the earth at some point, but life itself is a thread that is never broken, never lost. Do you know why? Because each man makes a knot in the thread during his lifetime: it is the work he has done and that’s what gives life to life in the long stretch of time: the usefulness of man on this earth.
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
