Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“We passed the Childrens Bureau bill calculated to prevent children from being employed too early in factories.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
“If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practise, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever- present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.”
—Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
