Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “For life is the mirror of king and slave—”
    —Madeline Bridges (fl. C. 1840)

    “Whenever [Leonard Bernstein] entered or exited a country he would fill in on his passport form not composer or conductor, but musician. Of course people in the press spent a lot of Lenny’s life telling him what he should have done; he should have been a concert pianist, he should have composed more.... And people wouldn’t let him live his own life. But he created his own career, in his own image.”
    —John Mauceri (b. 1945)
