Years Long

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or long:

    Who lives longer: the man who takes heroin for two years and dies, or the man who lives on roast beef, water and potatoes till ninety-five? One passes his twenty-four months in eternity. All the years of the beef-eater are lived only in time.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    No one knows anybody’s name because nobody has a name. You’re just your state. I got to where somebody would say “Virginia,” and I’d answer. I was just “Virginia.” I wasn’t me any more.
    —Wendy Dascomb Long (b. c. 1950)
