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

    “... business training in early life should not be regarded solely as insurance against destitution in the case of an emergency. For from business experience women can gain, too, knowledge of the world and of human beings, which should be of immeasurable value to their marriage careers. Self-discipline, co-operation, adaptability, efficiency, economic management,—if she learns these in her business life she is liable for many less heartbreaks and disappointments in her married life.”
    —Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    “Women who marry early are often overly enamored of the kind of man who looks great in wedding pictures and passes the maid of honor his telephone number.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “The happiest part of a man’s life is what he passes lying awake in bed in the morning.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    “Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
