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

    “The secret of heaven is kept from age to age. No imprudent, no sociable angel ever dropt an early syllable to answer the longings of saints, the fears of mortals. We should have listened on our knees to any favorite, who, by stricter obedience, had brought his thoughts into parallelism with the celestial currents, and could hint to human ears the scenery and circumstance of the newly parted soul.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Life at its noblest leaves mere happiness far behind; and indeed cannnot endure it.... Happiness is not the object of life: life has no object: it is an end in itself; and courage consists in the readiness to sacrifice happiness for an intenser quality of life.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.”
    —H.G. (Herbert George)
