Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “A man’s whole life is taxed for the least thing well done. It is its net result.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “No person can be considered as possessing a good education without religion. A good education is that which prepares us for our future sphere of action and makes us contented with that situation in life in which God, in his infinite mercy, has seen fit to place us, to be perfectly resigned to our lot in life, whatever it may be.”
    —Ann Plato (1820–?)
