Famous quotes containing the word life:

    On the death of a friend, we should consider that the fates through confidence have devolved on us the task of a double living, that we have henceforth to fulfill the promise of our friend’s life also, in our own, to the world.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    O that those lips had language! Life has passed
    With me but roughly since I heard thee last.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
