Live Quotes

Different ways of living, side by side.

This collection uses "live" as its thread but covers unusually varied ground — from reflections on how long humanity might last, to observations about wealth and poverty coexisting closely in Mexico. For quotes on love and connection, see Love quotes.

When a loved one disappears, you continue to live with the accompaniment of that person. One has to find a balance between joy and sorrow.
