Becoming a mother cannot help but change things. An author's life is reflected in their writing, whether they want it to be or not, and parenthood is one of the biggest life changes there is.
People lose people, we lose things in our life as we're constantly growing and changing. That's what life is is change, and a lot of that is loss. It's what you gain from that loss that makes life.
I know that I will never find my father in any other man who comes into my life, because it is a void in my life that can only be filled by him.
There are only three events in a man's life; birth, life, and death; he is not conscious of being born, he dies in pain, and he forgets to live.
I hope it is true that a man can die and yet not only live in others but give them life, and not only life, but that great consciousness of life.
For me, life and death are very important themes. There is no life without death. That's why it's very important to me.
I did not direct my life. I didn't design it. I never made decisions. Things always came up and made them for me. That's what life is.
The ultimate end of education is happiness or a good human life, a life enriched by the possession of every kind of good, by the enjoyment of every type of satisfaction.
I always believed in God and Christ, but I was in rebellion - trying to make my relationship with God fit into my life instead of making my life fit in with him. I was stubborn.
I think a lot of times people who jump from one movie to another don't enjoy their private life. It's a great way to escape reality. But I enjoy my life.
Quitting law school was the most difficult decision of my life. But I felt this great relief that this is my life and I can do what I want with it.
To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy of canonization.
Life is abundant, and life is beautiful. And it's a good place that we're all in, you know, on this earth, if we take care of it.
The great thing about life - I'd rather not know and just hope I'm happy and healthy and I feel as good about my life as I do now.
Music is love, love is music, music is life, and I love my life. Thank you and good night.
I take all of my life lessons, which some people might call 'mistakes,' and apply them to my future so that I keep growing.
Why would anyone get married and have babies? That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard in my life. Or the scariest thing I've ever heard in my life.
My life contains so many other things; I have my children, my grandchildren, my two dogs and a big place in the country. I have my own life.
I believe each of us has a mission in life, and that one cannot truly be living their most fulfilled life until they recognize this mission and dedicate their life to pursuing it.
I have one son. Of everything I've done in my life, nothing matches the feeling of having life growing inside you.
