Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    “It was common practice for me to take my children with me whenever I went shopping, out for a walk in a white neighborhood, or just felt like going about in a white world. The reason was simple enough: if a black man is alone or with other black men, he is a threat to whites. But if he is with children, then he is harmless, adorable.”
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    “St. Teresa of Avila described our life in this world as like a night at a second-class hotel.”
    —Malcolm Muggeridge (1903–1990)

    “... the whole tenour of female education ... tends to render the best disposed romantic and inconstant; and the remainder vain and mean.”
    —Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
