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

    Early rising is no pleasure; early drinking’s just the measure.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    You have nothing more to fear. Not death nor decay. Here in this cup is my gift of life to you. I’m going to make you immortal. And I, too, shall drink and be immortal. We will not return to Egypt. Our world shall be wide, our time shall be without end. Has any man before offered a gift of eternal life to his bride?
    Griffin Jay, and Reginald LeBorg. Yousef Bey (John Carradine)

    Children need money. As they grow older they need more money. They need money for essentially the same reasons that adults need money. They need to buy stuff....They need it regardless of whether they get good grades, violate a family rule, or offend a parent.
    Donald C. Medeiros (20th century)
