Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:

    Some would find fault with the morning red, if they ever got up early enough.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
