Famous quotes containing the word life:

    There are only two sorts of people in life you can trust—good Christians and good Communists.
    Joe Slovo (b. 1926)

    Still we live meanly, like ants; though the fable tells us that we were long ago changed into men; like pygmies we fight with cranes; it is error upon error, and clout upon clout, and our best virtue has for its occasion a superfluous and evitable wretchedness. Our life is frittered away by detail.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
