Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    the cluttered eyes

    Julia Marlowe (1866–1950)

    ... in the education of women, the cultivation of the understanding is always subordinate to the acquirement of some corporeal accomplishment ...
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
