Life Thread

Famous quotes containing the words life and/or thread:

    Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:
    What I aspired to be,
    And was not, comforts me:
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    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)
