Famous quotes containing the word years:

    “Narcissus does not fall in love with his reflection because it is beautiful, but because it is his. If it were his beauty that enthralled him, he would be set free in a few years by its fading.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “I’d give all wealth that years have piled,
    The slow result of Life’s decay,
    To be once more a little child
    For one bright summer-day.”
