George Crabbe Quotes

Everybody dies but not everybody lives.

All of us want to live, and that is absolutely natural. However, we should learn from childhood on to choose our best way to die. If we don't do that, we end up spending our days like a dog, only in search of harbour, food and expressing a blind loyalty to his owner in return. That isn't enough to make our lives have a meaning.

We were born and we die. In between, I think we try to live as best we can.

It is only in the light of the inescapable fact of death that a person can adequately engage and enter upon the mysterious fact of life.

There is no means of proving it is preferable to be than not to be.

I am only here on this earth for a short period of time, like the rest of the country and citizens, and I want the time that I spend here on earth to matter.

Everybody has a purpose in this world.

The purpose of life is living. Men and women should get the most they can out of their lives.

The purpose of life is life.

Life is short, and therefore, one thing being certain, death, let us take up a great ideal, and give up the whole life to it. For what is the value of life, this vegetating little low life of man? Subordinating it to one high ideal is the only value that life has.

The purpose of life is to bring forth goodness. Now, in this life.

I don't know how one should live - but I know that one should live.
