Famous quotes containing the word lifetime:
“The world, unfathomably fair,
Is duller than a witling’s jest.
Love wakes men, once a lifetime each;
They lift their heavy lids, and look;
And, lo, what one sweet page can teach,
They read with joy, then shut the book.”
—Coventry Kersey Dighton Patmore (1823–1896)
“Once in his lifetime every artist feels the hand of God and creates something that comes alive.”
—Crane Wilbur (1889–1973)
“Diamonds may have been a girl’s best friend in an era when a woman’s only hope of having a high family income was to marry a man who was well-off, but today, marketable skills that will enable a woman to command a good income over her lifetime are a better investment.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
