Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    It is so very late that we
    May call it early by and by. Good night.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Not lived; for life doth her great actions spell,
    By what was done and wrought
    In season, and so brought
    To light: her measures are, how well
    Each syllab’e answered, and was formed how fair;
    These make the lines of life, and that’s her air.
    Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
