Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    Early rising is no pleasure; early drinking’s just the measure.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    I set forth a humble and inglorious life; that does not matter. You can tie up all moral philosophy with a common and private life just as well as with a life of richer stuff. Each man bears the entire form of man’s estate.
