Years Long

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or long:

“Jugful of milk! It was yours years ago
when I lived in the valley of my bones,
bones dumb in the swamp. Little playthings.”

“And the truth becomes a hole, something one has always known,
A heaviness in the trees, and no one can say
Where it comes from, or how long it will stay
A randomness, a darkness of one’s own.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
