Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

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

    —No, no thou hast not felt the lapse of hours!
    For what wears out the life of mortal men?
    ‘Tis that from change to change their being rolls;
    ‘Tis that repeated shocks, again, again,
    Exhaust the energy of strongest souls
    And numb the elastic powers.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
