Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    ...he came towards them early in the morning, walking on the sea.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 6:48.

    Had I but died an hour before this chance,
    I had lived a blessed time; for from this instant
    There’s nothing serious in mortality.

    The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees
    Is left this vault to brag of.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
