William Thornton - Later Life

Famous quotes containing the word life:

“Political life at Washington is like political life in a suburban vestry.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
