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)

    ““Is there life on Mars?” “No, not there either.””
    —Russian saying popular in the Soviet period, trans. by Vladimir Ivanovich Shlyakov (1993)
