Famous quotes containing the word years:
“In many respects, the preteen years mimic adolescence, but without one essential ingredient: hormones.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
“Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.”
—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
