My favorite quotations: Life

August 8th, 2005 by Michael Moncur in Quotations

Continuing the my favorite quotations series, here are a few of my favorites from our most popular subject, and the most general of all subjects: Life. We have lots of quotations on this topic and it’s hard to choose, but these are some that are meaningful to me—or at least funny.

Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about.
Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere’s Fan, 1892, Act I
Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.
John Lennon, “Beautiful Boy”
Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
Samuel Butler
Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.
Brendan Gill
