Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    It is so very late that we
    May call it early by and by. Good night.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    On the farm I had learned how to meet realities without suffering either mentally or physically. My initiative had never been blunted. I had freedom to succeed—freedom to fail. Life on the farm produces a kind of toughness.
