The Year

Famous quotes containing the word year:

    “It had been cold since December. Snow fell, first,
    At New Year and, from then until April, lay
    On everything. Now it had melted, leaving
    The gray grass like a pallet, closely pressed;
    And dirt. The wind blew in the empty place.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “I have done it again.
    One year in every ten
    I manage it—”
    —Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
