Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “It is my duty, gentlemen, to inform you that women are dictators
    all, and I recommend to you this moral:
    In real life it takes only one to make a quarrel.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    “Your Christians, whom one persecutes in vain, have something in them that surpasses the human. They lead a life of such innocence, that the heavens owe them some recognition: that they arise the stronger the more they are beaten down is hardly the result of common virtues.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
