Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “Progress would not have been the rarity it is if the early food had not been the late poison.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    “Still we live meanly, like ants; though the fable tells us that we were long ago changed into men; like pygmies we fight with cranes; it is error upon error, and clout upon clout, and our best virtue has for its occasion a superfluous and evitable wretchedness. Our life is frittered away by detail.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
