Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    ... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The whole life of an American is passed like a game of chance, a revolutionary crisis, or a battle.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
