What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

— Crowfoot, Blackfoot warrior and orator, 1890
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue. An everlasting vision of the ever-changing view.

Life is simply a collection of memories, but memories are like star light...They live on Forever.

All you touch and all you see, is all your life will ever be.

— Pink Floyd, "Breathe"
The true beloveds of this world are in their lover's eyes lilacs opening, ship lights, school bells, a landscape, remembered conversations, friends, a child's Sunday, lost voices, one's favorite suit, autumn and all seasons, memory, yes it being the earth and water of existence, memory.

— Truman Capote, "Other Voices, Other Rooms"
Life is eating us up. We all shall be fables presently. Keep cool: it will be all one a hundred years hence.

— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Death should not be seen as the end but as a very effective way to cut down expenses.
