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)

    “The American grips himself, at the very sources of his consciousness, in a grip of care: and then, to so much of the rest of life, is indifferent. Whereas, the European hasn’t got so much care in him, so he cares much more for life and living.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
