Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    The girl must early be impressed with the idea that she is to be “a hand, not a mouth”; a worker, and not a drone, in the great hive of human activity. Like the boy, she must be taught to look forward to a life of self-dependence, and early prepare herself for some trade or profession.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Now ... that you are going to marry, do not expect more from life, than life will afford.”
    Samuel Johnson (1704–1784)
