Years Long

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or long:

    Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.
    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)

    Poor tired Tim! It’s sad for him
    He lags the long bright morning through,
    Ever so tired of nothing to do;
    Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
