Life Quotes

"I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs, and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music." ~ The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot "For life be, after all, only a waitin' for somethin' else than what we're doin', and death be all that we can rightly depend on." ~ Dracula by Bram Stoker "As long as the heart beats, as long as body and soul keep together, I cannot admit that any creature endowed with a will has need to despair of life." ~ Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne All men live enveloped in whale-lines. All are born with halters round their necks; but it is only when caught in the swift, sudden turn of death, that mortals realize the silent, subtle, ever present perils of life. ~ Moby Dick by Herman Melville Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world. ~ Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
