Twenty Shillings

Famous quotes containing the words twenty and/or shillings:

    To be honest, I knew that there was no difference between dying at their years old and dying at seventy because, naturally, in both cases, other men and women will live on, for thousands of years at that.... It was still I who was dying, whether it was today or twenty years from now.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
