Famous quotes containing the words bernard, early and/or life:

    Cruelty would be delicious if one could only find some sort of cruelty that didn’t really hurt.
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    The girl must early be impressed with the idea that she is to be “a hand, not a mouth”; a worker, and not a drone, in the great hive of human activity. Like the boy, she must be taught to look forward to a life of self-dependence, and early prepare herself for some trade or profession.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    [Man’s] life consists in a relation with all things: stone, earth, trees, flowers, water, insects, fishes, birds, creatures, sun, rainbow, children, women, other men. But his greatest and final relation is with the sun.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
