Quotes about Life by Simone de Beauvoir

Simone de Beauvoir French writer and essayist

Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay.

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about life

I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom.

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about life

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about life

Life is occupied in both perpetuating itself and in surpassing itself; if all it does is maintain itself, then living is only not dying.

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about life

One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation and compassion.

Quote by Simone de Beauvoir about life

Why one man rather than another? It was odd. You find yourself involved with a fellow for life just because he was the one that you met when you were nineteen.
