Anthony Burgess Life Is Quotations

Life is sustained by the grinding opposition of moral entities.

All human life is here, but the Holy Ghost seems to be somewhere else.

Delimitation is always difficult. The world is one, life is one. The sweetest and most heavenly of activities partake in some measure of violence - the act of love, for instance; music, for instance.

Life is, of course, terrible.

Put it off for a bit. All life is putting off. Well, not entirely.
