Famous quotes containing the word life:

    The contention that a standing army and navy is the best security of peace is about as logical as the claim that the most peaceful citizen is he who goes about heavily armed. The experience of every-day life fully proves that the armed individual is invariably anxious to try his strength. The same is historically true of governments. Really peaceful countries do not waste life and energy in war preparations, with the result that peace is maintained.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    Art is uncompromising and life is full of compromises.
    Günther Grass (b. 1927)

    His life was a sort of dream, as are most lives with the mainspring left out.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
