Older

Famous quotes containing the word older:

    The sun set; but set not his hope:
    Stars rose; his faith was earlier up:
    Fixed on the enormous galaxy,
    Deeper and older seemed his eye:
    And matched his sufferance sublime
    The taciturnity of time.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    She is older than the rocks among which she sits; like the vampire, she has been dead many times, and learned the secrets of the grave.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    The older I get the more I trust in the law according to which the rose and the lily bloom.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
