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

    “I looked at my daughters, and my boyhood picture, and appreciated the gift of parenthood, at that moment, more than any other gift I have ever been given. For what person, except one’s own children, would want so deeply and sincerely to have shared your childhood? Who else would think your insignificant and petty life so precious in the living, so rich in its expressiveness, that it would be worth partaking of what you were, to understand what you are?”
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    “Sometimes I think of life as a process where everybody is discouraging and taking everybody else down a peg or two.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “A real hangover is nothing to try out family remedies on. The only cure for a real hangover is death.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
