Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    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)

    “O life of this our Spring! why fades the lotus of the water?
    Why fade these children of the Spring,born but to smile and fall?
    William Blake (1757–1827)
