Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “I have spent so long erecting partitions around the part of me that writes—learning how to close the door on it when ordinary life intervenes, how to close the door on ordinary life when it’s time to start writing again—that I’m not sure I could fit the two parts of me back together now.”
    —Anne Tyler (b. 1941)

    “... it is the greatest of all mistakes to begin life with the expectation that it is going to be easy, or with the wish to have it so.”
    —Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)
