Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    “Early education can only promise to help make the third and fourth and fifth years of life good ones. It cannot insure without fail that any tomorrow will be successful. Nothing “fixes” a child for life, no matter what happens next. But exciting, pleasing early experiences are seldom sloughed off. They go with the child, on into first grade, on into the child’s long life ahead.”
    —James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    “Take away love, and our earth is a tomb!
    Flower o’ the quince,
    I let Lisa go, and what good in life since?”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)
