Those who do not know how to live must make a merit of dying.
George Bernard ShawIt’s not morbid to talk about death. Most people don’t worry about death, they worry about a bad death.
Terry PratchettThe bottom line on the Hyde Amendment is that it is directly, in effect, targeting poor women and women who don’t have money.
Kamala HarrisCapitalism does not permit an even flow of economic resources. With this system, a small privileged few are rich beyond conscience, and almost all others are doomed to be poor at some level. That’s the way the system works. And since we know that the system will not change the rules, we are going to have to change the system.
Martin Luther King, Jr.There is nothing permanent except change.
HeraclitusActor’s life is very long.
Jackie ChanWars of nations are fought to change maps. But wars of poverty are fought to map change.
Muhammad AliMy life has been long, and believing that life loves the liver of it, I have dared to try many things, sometimes trembling, but daring still.
Maya AngelouYouth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.
George Bernard ShawMy life has been one great big joke, a dance that’s walked a song that’s spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke when I think about myself.
Maya AngelouIt is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Oscar WildeI have a feeling that I make a very good friend, and I’m a good mother, and a good sister, and a good citizen. I am involved in life itself – all of it. And I have a lot of energy and a lot of nerve.
Maya AngelouOne must be poor to know the luxury of giving!
George EliotIn such a porcelain life, one likes to be sure that all is well lest one stumble upon one’s hopes in a pile of broken crockery.
Emily DickinsonThe spiritual is the parent of the practical.
Thomas CarlyleThe figure a poem makes. It begins in delight and ends in wisdom… in a clarification of life – not necessarily a great clarification, such as sects and cults are founded on, but in a momentary stay against confusion.
Robert FrostI want you to feel happy and enjoy the theatre of my life the way that I do. No matter what happens with my music and wherever I go – that heart of that glamorous girl in New York will never be gone.
Lady GagaThere is nothing I fear more than waking up without a program that will help me bring a little happiness to those with no resources, those who are poor, illiterate, and ridden with terminal disease.
Nelson MandelaI decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
Audrey HepburnMy life is real.
Nipsey HussleIt’s pretty intense writing about my own life, my own struggles.
Taylor SwiftI put all my genius into my life; I put only my talent into my works.
Oscar WildeWhen you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
Marcus AureliusBeing unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.
Mother TeresaAll the time, I’ve felt that life is a wager and that I probably was getting more out of leading a bohemian existence as a writer than I would have if I didn’t.
Christopher HitchensNo one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.
Steve JobsLife can be boring unless you put some effort into it.
John C. MaxwellLife is anything but predictable.
Dwayne JohnsonLife without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Khalil GibranLife is not living in the suburbs with a white picket fence. That’s not life. Somehow our American culture has made it out that that’s what life needs to be – and that if it’s not that, it’s all screwed up. It’s not.
Tom BradyThe surest way to remain poor is to be an honest man.
Napoleon BonaparteFor modes of faith let graceless zealots fight, His can’t be wrong whose life is in the right.
Alexander PopeTo not follow your passion in life is a recipe for failure and unhappiness.
Robert GreeneI’m not afraid of death, but I’m in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first.
Stephen HawkingWe think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
Mother TeresaLife isn’t meant to be easy. It’s hard to take being on the top – or on the bottom. I guess I’m something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things… Life is one crisis after another.
Richard M. NixonI believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine.
Neil ArmstrongWithout frugality none can be rich, and with it very few would be poor.
Samuel JohnsonLife is like a wheel. Sooner or later, it always come around to where you started again.
Stephen KingWhat we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
Helen KellerIt put our energies to sleep and made visionaries of us – dreamers and indolent… It is good to begin life poor; it is good to begin life rich – these are wholesome; but to begin it prospectively rich! The man who has not experienced it cannot imagine the curse of it.
Mark TwainDo not waste your time on Social Questions. What is the matter with the poor is Poverty; what is the matter with the rich is Uselessness.
George Bernard ShawLife is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.
VoltaireIt is hard to interest those who have everything in those who have nothing.
Helen KellerModern science says: ‚The sun is the past, the earth is the present, the moon is the future.‘ From an incandescent mass we have originated, and into a frozen mass we shall turn. Merciless is the law of nature, and rapidly and irresistibly we are drawn to our doom.
Nikola TeslaJust as courage imperils life, fear protects it.
Leonardo da VinciLife and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.
Lao TzuMiracles, in the sense of phenomena we cannot explain, surround us on every hand: life itself is the miracle of miracles.
George Bernard ShawMay you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law.
Immanuel KantWhile there’s life, there’s hope.
Marcus Tullius CiceroIt’s not a coincidence that in the Scriptures, poverty is mentioned more than 2,100 times. It’s not an accident. That’s a lot of air time, 2,100 mentions.
BonoNothing on this earth is standing still. It’s either growing or it’s dying. No matter if it’s a tree or a human being.
Lou HoltzHappiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.
Johann Wolfgang von GoethePeople who don’t like my work say that the connections seem too arbitrary. But that’s how life is.
Paul AusterPoverty wants some, luxury many, and avarice all things.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaThe key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.
Bruce LeeI joyfully hasten to meet death. If it come before I have had opportunity to develop all my artistic faculties, it will come, my hard fate notwithstanding, too soon, and I should probably wish it later – yet even then I shall be happy, for will it not deliver me from a state of endless suffering?
Ludwig van BeethovenI believe life is an intelligent thing: that things aren’t random.
Steve JobsThe truth is you don’t know what is going to happen tomorrow. Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed.
EminemI have such incredible experiences in my life.
Rihanna
