Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    In early days, I tried not to give librarians any trouble, which was where I made my primary mistake. Librarians like to be given trouble; they exist for it, they are geared to it. For the location of a mislaid volume, an uncatalogued item, your good librarian has a ferret’s nose. Give her a scent and she jumps the leash, her eye bright with battle.
    Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)

    A good book is the precious lifeblood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
