Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    Early rising is no pleasure; early drinking’s just the measure.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    Remember the rights of the savage, as we call him. Remember that the happiness of his humble home, remember that the sanctity of life in the hill villages of Afghanistan, among the winter snows, is as inviolable in the eye of Almighty God, as can be your own.
