And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers is always the first to be touch'd by the thorns.
Thomas Moore
Every one goes astray, but the least imprudent are they who repent the soonest.
Voltaire
Faces that have charmed us the most escape us the soonest.
Walter Scott
Loveliest of lovely things are they on earth that soonest pass away. The rose that lives its little hour is prized beyond the sculptured flower.
William C. Bryant
We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.
C. S. Lewis
