Famous quotes containing the word years:

    All through the years of our youth
    Neither could have known
    Their own thought from the other’s,
    We were so much at one.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Her fist of a face died clenched on a round pain;
    And sculptured Ann is seventy years of stone.
    These cloud-sopped, marble hands, this monumental
    Argument of the hewn voice, gesture and psalm,
    Storm me forever over her grave
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
