Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:

    “We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.”
    —Henry Reed (1914–1986)

    “In a few years there will be only five kings in the world—the King of England and the four kings in a pack of cards.”
    —Farouk I (1920–1965)
