Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    I taught school in the early days of my manhood and I think I know something about mothers. There is a thread of aspiration that runs strong in them. It is the fiber that has formed the most unselfish creatures who inhabit this earth. They want three things only; for their children to be fed, to be healthy, and to make the most of themselves.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    O gentlemen, the time of life is short!
    To spend that shortness basely were too long.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
