Famous quotes containing the word life:

    Two such as you with such a master speed
    Cannot be parted nor be swept away
    From one another once you are agreed
    That life is only life forevermore
    Together wing to wing and oar to oar.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The genuine artist is never “true to life.” He sees what is real, but not as we are normally aware of it. We do not go storming through life like actors in a play. Art is never real life.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    While I enjoy the friendship of the seasons I trust that nothing can make life a burden to me.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
