Famous quotes containing the word years:

    Thirty years now I have labored
    To dredge the silt from your throat.
    I am none the wiser.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    The years seemed to stretch before her like the land: spring, summer, autumn, winter, spring; always the same patient fields, the patient little trees, the patient lives; always the same yearning; the same pulling at the chain—until the instinct to live had torn itself and bled and weakened for the last time, until the chain secured a dead woman, who might cautiously be released.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
