Life Thread

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or thread:

    The only living works are those which have drained much of the author’s own life into them.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    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)
