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

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

    “Sin their conception, their birth weeping,
    Their life a general mist of error,
    Their death a hideous storm of terror.”
    —John Webster (c. 1580–1638)

    “It’s fairly obvious that American education is a cultural flop. Americans are not a well-educated people culturally, and their vocational education often has to be learned all over again after they leave school and college. On the other hand, they have open quick minds and if their education has little sharp positive value, it has not the stultifying effects of a more rigid training.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
