Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:

    I looked at my daughters, and my boyhood picture, and appreciated the gift of parenthood, at that moment, more than any other gift I have ever been given. For what person, except one’s own children, would want so deeply and sincerely to have shared your childhood? Who else would think your insignificant and petty life so precious in the living, so rich in its expressiveness, that it would be worth partaking of what you were, to understand what you are?
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    Jim Wilson: Cops have no friends. Nobody likes a cop. On either side of the law. Nobody.
    Captain Brawley: Is that what you want? People to like you? Then you’re in the wrong business and you ought to get out.
    Jim Wilson: It’s the only job I know. Has been for eleven years now.
    Captain Brawley: Then make up your mind to be a cop. Not a gangster with a badge.
    —A.I. (Albert Isaac)
