To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.
- quote by Mary Oliver
To live is not a blessing, but to live well.
- quote by Seneca
To take away life is a power which the vilest of the earth have in common; to give it belongs to gods and kings alone.
- quote by Metastasio
To the solemn graves, near a lonely cemetery, my heart like a muffled drum is beating funeral marches.
- quote by Charles Baudelaire
To-morrow I will live, the fool does say; To-day itself's too late, the wise lived yesterday.
- quote by Martial
Tomorrow's life is too late. Live today.
- quote by Martial
Truly there is a tide in the affairs of men; but there is no gulf-stream setting forever in one direction.
- quote by James Russell Lowell
Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be deadsoon enough....
- quote by William Saroyan
Vain were the man, and false as vain, Who said, were he ordained to run His long career of life again He would do all that he had done.
- quote by Thomas Moore
We are all but Fellow-Travelers, Along Life's weary way; If any man can play the pipes, In God's name, let him play.
- quote by John Bennett
