Famous quotes containing the word years:

    Twenty years a child; twenty years running wild; twenty years a mature man—and after that, praying.
    Irish proverb.

    Mee of these
    Nor skilld nor studious, higher Argument
    Remaines, sufficient of it self to raise
    That name, unless an age too late, or cold
    Climat, or Years damp my intended wing
    Deprest, and much they may, if all be mine,
    Not Hers who brings it nightly to my Ear.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
