Famous quotes containing the words birth, early and/or years:

    “Man’s main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.”
    —Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    “Yet, haply, in some lull of life,
    Some Truce of God which breaks its strife,
    The worldling’s eyes shall gather dew,
    Dreaming in throngful city ways
    Of winter joys his boyhood knew;
    And dear and early friends—the few”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    “After Buddha was dead, his shadow was still shown for centuries in a cave—a tremendous, gruesome shadow. God is dead; but given the way of man, there may still be caves for thousands of years in which his shadow will be shown.—And we—we still have to vanquish his shadow, too.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
