Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I never read a novel, they have so little real life and thought in them.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
