Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man’s training begins, its probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “There is hope for the future. When the world is ready for a new and better life all this will some day come to pass in God’s good time.”
    —Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
