Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Two sleepy people by dawns early light, and two much in love to say goodnight.”
—Frank Loesser (19101969)
“Thus when I come to shape here at this table between my hands the story of my life and set it before you as a complete thing, I have to recall things gone far, gone deep, sunk into this life or that and become part of it; dreams, too, things surrounding me, and the inmates, those old half-articulate ghosts who keep up their hauntings by day and night ... shadows of people one might have been; unborn selves.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
