"Life is rife" by William Shakespheare(English Great Dramatic Writer)
"I love to see that Nature is so rife with life that myriads can be afforded to be sacrificed and suffered to prey on one another; that tender organization can be so serenely squashed out of existence like pulp-tadpoles which herons gobble up, and tortoises and toads run over in the road; and that sometimes it has rained flesh and blood!"
from "Spring" in 'Walden' by Henry David Thoreau(American Essayist)
