The sensory misers will inherit the earth, but first they will make it not worth living on. When you consider something like death, after which we may well go out like a candle flame, then it probably won't matter if we try too hard, are awkward sometimes, care for one another too deeply, are excessively curious about nature, are too open to experience, enjoy a nonstop expense of the senses in an effort to know life intimately and lovingly.

Look--I understand that an unexamined life is not worth living, but do you think I could someday have an unexamined lunch?
- Elizabeth Gilbert
a life without investigation is not worth living
- Plato
I see many people die because they judge that life is not worth living. I see others paradoxically getting killed for the ideas or illusions that give them a reason for living (what is called a reason for living is also an excellent reason for dying). I therefore conclude that the meaning of life is the most urgent of questions.
- Albert Camus
To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living.
- Anthony Bourdain
Carefully execute every instruction given to you by the director, producer, and studio. But that would be a life not worth living.
- Carter Burwell
Life is not worth living for which a man is not prepared to die at any moment.
- Whittaker Chambers
The unexamined life is not worth living.
- Socrates
Plato says that the unexamined life is not worth living. But what if the examined life turns out to be a clunker as well?
- Kurt Vonnegut
Trout was petrified there on Forty-second Street. It had given him a
life not worth living, but I had also given him an iron will to live. This
was a common combination on the planet Earth.
- Kurt Vonnegut
Socrates told us, "the unexamined life is not worth living." I think he's calling for curiosity, more than knowledge. In every human society at all times and at all levels, the curious are at the leading edge.
- Roger Ebert
Plato did claim that the unexamined life was not worth living. Oedipus Rex was not so sure.
- Tom Robbins
The beginning of our happiness lies in the understanding that life without wonder is not worth living.
- Abraham Joshua Heschel
The ancient Greeks were the first ones to say an unexamined life is not worth living. They don't tell you of course what we found out, an examined life not that fascinating either.
- Colin Quinn
The rescue of drowning men is... a duty worth dying for, but not worth living for. It seems to me that all political duties (among which I include military duties) are of this kind. A man may have to die for our country, but no man must, in an exclusive sense, live for his country.
- C S Lewis
The over examined life, Claire, it's not worth living.
- Colum Mccann
They say an unexamined life is not worth living

No matter what Aristotle and the Philosophers say, nothing is equal to tobacco; it's the passion of the well-bred, and he who lives without tobacco lives a life not worth living.
- Moliere
Man is born in a day, and he dies in a day, and the thing is easily over; but to have a sick heart for three-fourths of one's lifetime is simply to have death renewed every morning; and life at that price is not worth living.
- Gilbert Parker
A world without dragons is a world not worth living in.
- R A Salvatore
Quiet heroism or youthful idealism, or both? What do we know? That life without heroism and idealism is not worth living - or that either can be fatal?
- Erich Segal
How could you explain to someone that sometimes it was not worth living in the past when the past was all that they had worth living for?
- Nicole Sobon
Life is not worth living unless you live it for the One who gave you life.
