Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    “When first we faced, and touching showed
    How well we knew the early moves ...”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “And we can get back to that raw state
    Of feeling, so long deemed
    Inconsequential and therefore appropriate to our later musings
    About religion, about migrations. What is restored
    Becomes stronger than the loss as it is remembered;
    Is a new, separate life of its own.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “He was the product of an English public school and university. He was, moreover, a modern product of those seats of athletic exercise. He had little education and highly developed muscles—that is to say, he was no scholar, but essentially a gentleman.”
    —H. Seton Merriman (1862–1903)
