“The life given us, by nature is short; but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal.”
“This life is not given to us as a pastime. There was a solemn purpose in our creation, in the life that God has given to us. Let us study what that purpose is, that we may progress and obtain eternal life.”
“The promise of eternal life makes people forsake the life they're given.”
“Now, comrades, what is the nature of this life of ours? Let us face it: our lives are miserable, laborious, and short.”
“The eternal life is given to those who live in the present.”
“as a well-spent day gives, joy in sleepso a well-spent life brings, joy in dying”
