Years Collins

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or collins:

    But—if you cannot give us ease—
    Last of the race of them who grieve
    Here leave us to die out with these
    Last of the people who believe!
    Silent, while years engrave the brow;
    Silent—the best are silent now.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    And Truth, in sunny vest arrayed,
    By whose the tarsel’s eyes were made;
    —William Collins (1721–1759)
