Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “Age. That period of life in which we compound for the vices that remain by reviling those we have no longer the vigor to commit.”
    —Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    “Ordinary time is “quality time” too. Everyday activities are not just necessities that keep you from serious child rearing: they are the best opportunities for learning you can give your child...because her chief task in her first three years is precisely to gain command of the day-to-day life you take for granted.”
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
