Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “Art is beauty, and every exposition of art, whether it be music, painting, or the drama, should be subservient to that one great end. As long as nature is a means to the attainment of beauty, so-called realism is necessary and permissable [sic], but it must be realism enhanced by idealism and uplifted by the spirit of an inner life or purpose.”
    —Julia Marlowe (1866–1950)

    “Mine honor is my life, both grow in one,
    Take honor from me, and my life is done.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
