Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    In the course of twenty crowded years one parts with many illusions. I did not wish to lose the early ones. Some memories are realities, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    she bit the towel and called on God
    and I saw her life stretch out . . .
    I saw her torn in childbirth,
    and I saw her, at that moment,
    in her own death and I knew that she
    knew.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
