May you live all the days of your life.
Why should we faint and fear to live alone,
Since all alone, so Heaven has willed, we die?
Nor even the tenderest heart, and next our own,
Knows half the reasons why we smile and sigh.
I would not live alway: I ask not to stay
Where storm after storm rises dark o'er the way.
I would not live alway.
It is good to live and learn.
They do not live but linger.
Man shall not live by bread alone.
Man doth not live by bread only.
That to live by one man's will became the cause of all men's misery.
I 'll purge, and leave sack, and live cleanly.
O happiness! our being's end and aim!
Good, pleasure, ease, content! whate'er thy name:
That something still which prompts the eternal sigh,
For which we bear to live, or dare to die.
It is better not to live at all than to live disgraced.
Socrates said, "Bad men live that they may eat and drink, whereas good men eat and drink that they may live."
It is a very good world to live in,
To lend, or to spend, or to give in;
But to beg or to borrow, or to get a man's own,
It is the very worst world that ever was known.
Men's evil manners live in brass; their virtues
We write in water.
We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths;
In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart-throbs. He most lives
Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.
Life's but a means unto an end; that end
Beginning, mean, and end to all things,—God.
To live in hearts we leave behind
Is not to die.
There, take (says Justice), take ye each a shell:
We thrive at Westminster on fools like you;
'T was a fat oyster,—live in peace,—adieu.
Live while you live, the epicure would say,
And seize the pleasures of the present day;
Live while you live, the sacred preacher cries,
And give to God each moment as it flies.
Lord, in my views, let both united be:
I live in pleasure when I live to thee.
Cowards [may] fear to die; but courage stout,
Rather than live in snuff, will be put out.
It matters not how long you live, but how well.
Gon. Here is everything advantageous to life.
Ant. True; save means to live.
You take my house when you do take the prop
That doth sustain my house; you take my life
When you do take the means whereby I live.
Underneath this stone doth lie
As much beauty as could die;
Which in life did harbour give
To more virtue than doth live.
I live not in myself, but I become
Portion of that around me; and to me
High mountains are a feeling, but the hum
Of human cities torture.
Angels listen when she speaks:
She's my delight, all mankind's wonder;
But my jealous heart would break
Should we live one day asunder.
Sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish, I give my hand and my heart to this vote.
When I consider life, 't is all a cheat.
Yet fool'd with hope, men favour the deceit;
Trust on, and think to-morrow will repay.
To-morrow's falser than the former day;
Lies worse, and while it says we shall be blest
With some new joys, cuts off what we possest.
Strange cozenage! none would live past years again,
Yet all hope pleasure in what yet remain;
And from the dregs of life think to receive
What the first sprightly running could not give.
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
So may'st thou live, till like ripe fruit thou drop
Into thy mother's lap.
So wise so young, they say, do never live long.
There taught us how to live; and (oh, too high
The price for knowledge!) taught us how to die.
Teach him how to live,
And, oh still harder lesson! how to die.
He who should teach men to die would at the same time teach them to live.
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown,
Thus unlamented let me die;
Steal from the world, and not a stone
Tell where I lie.
Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of the brain awe a man from the career of his humour? No, the world must be peopled. When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
Beware of desperate steps! The darkest day,
Live till to-morrow, will have pass'd away.
Well, honour is the subject of my story.
I cannot tell what you and other men
Think of this life; but, for my single self,
I had as lief not be as live to be
In awe of such a thing as I myself.
Live to be the show and gaze o' the time.
Socrates said, "Bad men live that they may eat and drink, whereas good men eat and drink that they may live."
For he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day;
But he who is in battle slain
Can never rise and fight again.
For he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day;
But he who is in battle slain
Can never rise and fight again.
To live is Christ, and to die is gain.
For we that live to please must please to live.
As true as I live.
Unblemish'd let me live, or die unknown;
O grant an honest fame, or grant me none!
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown,
Thus unlamented let me die;
Steal from the world, and not a stone
Tell where I lie.
We must eat to live and live to eat.
Thus we never live, but we hope to live; and always disposing ourselves to be happy, it is inevitable that we never become so.
Nor love thy life, nor hate; but what thou liv'st
Live well: how long or short permit to heaven.
Live while ye may,
Yet happy pair.
Live while you live, the epicure would say,
And seize the pleasures of the present day;
Live while you live, the sacred preacher cries,
And give to God each moment as it flies.
Lord, in my views, let both united be:
I live in pleasure when I live to thee.
Come live with me, and be my love;
And we will all the pleasures prove
That hills and valleys, dales and fields,
Woods or steepy mountain yields.
Live with the gods.
If all the world and love were young,
And truth in every shepherd's tongue,
These pretty pleasures might me move
To live with thee, and be thy love.
To live with them is far less sweet
Than to remember thee.
Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
The live-long day.
