Famous quotes containing the words early, political and/or career:

    “I looked at my daughters, and my boyhood picture, and appreciated the gift of parenthood, at that moment, more than any other gift I have ever been given. For what person, except one’s own children, would want so deeply and sincerely to have shared your childhood? Who else would think your insignificant and petty life so precious in the living, so rich in its expressiveness, that it would be worth partaking of what you were, to understand what you are?”
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    “We in the South were ready for reconciliation, to be accepted as equals, to rejoin the mainstream of American political life. This yearning for what might be called political redemption was a significant factor in my successful campaign.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    “I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.”
    —Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)
