Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    I cannot live with You—
    It would be Life
    And Life is over there—
    Behind the Shelf
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
