“Why live an ordinary life, when you can live an extraordinary one.”
“The life of a nation is the fullness of the measure of its will to live.”
1940s, Third Inaugural Address (1941)
Context: Lives of nations are determined not by the count of years, but by the lifetime of the human spirit. The life of a man is three-score years and ten: a little more, a little less. The life of a nation is the fullness of the measure of its will to live.
“Live life when you have it. Life is a splendid gift-there is nothing small about it.”
“When you live a life without questions, you're unprepared for the questions when they come.”
