Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “They circumcised women, little girls, in Jesus’s time. Did he know? Did the subject anger or embarrass him? Did the early church erase the record? Jesus himself was circumcised; perhaps he thought only the cutting done to him was done to women, and therefore, since he survived, it was all right.”
    —Alice Walker (b. 1944)

    “It was a thing of beauty and was sent
    To live its life out as an ornament.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
