Famous quotes containing the word years:

    Who lives longer: the man who takes heroin for two years and dies, or the man who lives on roast beef, water and potatoes till ninety-five? One passes his twenty-four months in eternity. All the years of the beef-eater are lived only in time.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Alas, Postumus, Postumus, the fleeting years slip by.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
