Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “We are living now, not in the delicious intoxication induced by the early successes of science, but in a rather grisly morning-after, when it has become apparent that what triumphant science has done hitherto is to improve the means for achieving unimproved or actually deteriorated ends.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “Die two months ago, and not forgotten yet? Then there’s hope
    a great man’s memory may outlive his life half a year.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
