Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “The writing career is not a romantic one. The writer’s life may be colorful, but his work itself is rather drab.”
    —Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    “For Jeremy, direct, unmediated experience was always hard to take in, always more or less disquieting. Life became safe, things assumed meaning, only when they had been translated into words and confined between the covers of a book.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
