Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “I don’t believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
    —Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
