Quotes:

Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within.
View quotes by Stephen Jay Gould

Our firmest convictions are apt to be the most suspect, they markour limitations and our bounds. Life is a pretty thing unless itis moved by the indomitable urge to extend its boundaries.
View quotes by Jose Ortega Y Gasset

There are people hell-bent on the idea that we're a Christian band in disguise, and that we have some secret message. We have no spiritual affiliation with this music. It's simply about life experience.
View quotes by Amy Lee

The sportsman knows that a sport is a recreation, a game, an amusement and a pastime, but his eyes are fixed on a higher goal, on the most important thing in his life, which is his education or his vocation.
View quotes by Avery Brundage

The first time I caught a wave standing up on a board. It was such an exhilarating moment. It was like being accepted into the men's club as it is such a male-dominated sport and a fundamental way of life in Newcastle.
View quotes by Jennifer Hawkins

If you don't love life you can't enjoy an oyster; there is a shock of freshness to it and intimations of the ages of man, some piercing intuition of the sea and all its weeds and breezes. They shiver you for a split second. [Just taste like salt to me! - Ed]
View quotes by Eleanor Clark

It's like being on Death Row in an American jail. You are waiting for the door handle to turn, not knowing whether it's a reprieve or just your final breakfast before being executed. [enjoying life at Notts County!]
View quotes by Howard Wilkinson

Terrorism takes us back to ages we thought were long gone if we allow it a free hand to corrupt democratic societies and destroy the basic rules of international life
View quotes by Jacques Chirac

And I hereby distinctly and emphatically declare that I consider myself, and earnestly desire to be considered by others, as utterly divested, now and during the rest of my life, of any such rights, the barbarous relics of a feudal, despotic system.
View quotes by Robert Dale Owen

No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. (Leviathan)
View quotes by Thomas Hobbes

God has plans which mortals don't understand. He rests in the womb when the new baby forms. Whispers the life dream to infinitesimal cells. It is God who lies under the thoughts of man. He is cartilage. Memory.
View quotes by Ellease Southerland

He it was that first gave to the law the air of a science. He found it a skeleton, and clothed it with life, colour, and complexion; he embraced the cold statue, and by his touch it grew into youth, health, and beauty.
View quotes by Barry Yelverton

For in itself a thought, a slumbering thought, is capable of years, and curdles a long life into one hour.
View quotes by Lord Byron

Loss of hope rather than loss of life is what decides the issues of war. But helplessness induces hopelessness.
View quotes by B H Liddell Hart

Sixty-three years ago the unemployment figure was 29 percent. Last November it was 28 percent. A rather sad end to one's life.
View quotes by Harold McMillan

Can you imagine? Finding out that you're going to be on two series at one time? I said to myself, my life is never going to be the same again. - on being cast for both Baywatch and Baywatch Nights
View quotes by Donna D'Errico

Believe me! The secret of reaping the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment from life is to live dangerously!
View quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, I will save it.
View quotes by Steve Irwin

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.
View quotes by Jim Rohn
