Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    Betwixt the black fronts long-withdrawn
    A light-blue lane of early dawn,
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    This death’s livery which walled its bearers from ordinary life was sign that they have sold their wills and bodies to the State: and contracted themselves into a service not the less abject for that its beginning was voluntary.
    —T.E. (Thomas Edward)
