Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    O troubled forms, O early love unfortunate and hard,

    “The life of reason”Ma phrase once used by people who thought that reading books would deliver them from their passions.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    I think the most important education that we have is the education which now I am glad to say is being accepted as the proper one, and one which ought to be widely diffused, that industrial, vocational education which puts young men and women in a position from which they can by their own efforts work themselves to independence.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
