Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“They circumcised women, little girls, in Jesuss time. Did he know? Did the subject anger or embarrass him? Did the early church erase the record? Jesus himself was circumcised; perhaps he thought only the cutting done to him was done to women, and therefore, since he survived, it was all right.”
—Alice Walker (b. 1944)
“I think its the real world. The people were writing about in professional sports, theyre suffering and living and dying and loving and trying to make their way through life just as the brick layers and politicians are.”
