Famous quotes containing the words years and/or collins:
“They will tell you tough stories of sharks all over the Cape, which I do not presume to doubt utterly,—how they will sometimes upset a boat, or tear it in pieces, to get at the man in it. I can easily believe in the undertow, but I have no doubt that one shark in a dozen years is enough to keep up the reputation of a beach a hundred miles long.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“All up and down the whole creation,
Sadly I roam,
Still longing for the old plantation,
And for the old folks at home.”
—Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1864)
