Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    Everyone in our culture wants to win a prize. Perhaps that is the grand lesson we have taken with us from kindergarten in the age of perversions of Dewey-style education: everyone gets a ribbon, and praise becomes a meaningless narcotic to soothe egoistic distemper.
    —Gerald Early (b. 1952)

    The hardest part about being a kid is knowing you have got your whole life ahead of you.
    Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
