I neither complain of the past, nor do I fear the future. - Michel Eyquem de Montaigne, Essays On Repentance (bk. III, ch. II) Life is but jest: A dream, a doom; A gleam, a gloom-- And then--good rest! Life is but play; A throb, a tear: A sob, a sneer; And then--good day.

La vie est breve: Un peu d'espoir, Un peu de reve-- Et puis--bon soir!] - Leon Louis Moreau Constant Corneille van Montenaeken, Peu de Chose et Presque Trop (Nought and too Much) 'Tis not the whole of life to live; Nor all of death to die. - James Montgomery, The Issues of Life and Death The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven? - Dwight Lyman Moody They may rail at this life--from the hour I began it, I've found it a life full of kindness and bliss; And, until they can show me some happier planet, More social and bright, I'll content me with this. - Thomas Moore The longer one lives the more he learns. - Thomas Moore, Dream of Hindoostan A narrow isthmus 'twixt two boundless seas, The past, the future, two eternities. - Thomas Moore, Lalla Rookh--Veiled Prophet Vain were the man, and false as vain, Who said, were he ordained to run His long career of life again He would do all that he had done. - Thomas Moore, My Birthday Life is a waste of wearisome hours, Which seldom the rose of enjoyment adorns, And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers, Is always the first to be touch'd by the thorns. - Thomas Moore, Oh!
