Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    ...he came towards them early in the morning, walking on the sea.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 6:48.

    To see self-sufficiency as the hallmark of maturity conveys a view of adult life that is at odds with the human condition, a view that cannot sustain the kinds of long-term commitments and involvements with other people that are necessary for raising and educating a child or for citizenship in a democratic society.
    Carol Gilligan (20th century)
