Famous quotes containing the words early and/or career:

    If you are willing to inconvenience yourself in the name of discipline, the battle is half over. Leave Grandma’s early if the children are acting impossible. Depart the ballpark in the sixth inning if you’ve warned the kids and their behavior is still poor. If we do something like this once, our kids will remember it for a long time.
    Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    I’ve been in the twilight of my career longer than most people have had their career.
    Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
