Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “next to of course god america i
    love you land of the pilgrims” and so forth oh

    country ‘tis of centuries come and go
    and are no more what of it we should worry
    in every language even deafanddumb

    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    Judgments, value judgments concerning life, whether for or against it, can in the end never be true: their only value is as symptoms, they only come into consideration as symptoms—in themselves such judgments are stupidities. We must reach out and attempt to put our finger on this astonishing finesse, that the value of life cannot be assessed.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
