Famous quotes containing the words earliest, latest and/or category:

    At the earliest ending of winter,
    In March, a scrawny cry from outside
    Seemed like a sound in his mind.
    He knew that he heard it,
    A bird’s cry, at daylight or before,
    In the early March wind.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The latest creed that has to be believed
    And entered in our childish catechism
    Is that the All’s a concept self-conceived,
    Which is no more than good old Pantheism.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The truth is, no matter how trying they become, babies two and under don’t have the ability to make moral choices, so they can’t be “bad.” That category only exists in the adult mind.
    Anne Cassidy (20th century)
