Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.”
    —Henry Reed (1914–1986)

    “There are more truths in twenty-four hours of a man’s life than in all the philosophies.”
    —Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
