Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:

    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)

    Well, children, enjoy this all you can, for in four years you may begin to walk over again.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
