Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “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)

    “I wage not any feud with Death
    For changes wrought on form and face;
    No lower life that earth’s embrace
    May breed with him can fright my faith.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
