Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:
“No doubt they rose up early to observe
The rite of May.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Youth is rather to be pitied than envied by people in years since it is doomed to toil through the rugged road of life which the others have passed through, in search of happiness that is not to be met with in it and that, at the highest, can be compounded for only by the blessing of a contented mind.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
