Years Older

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or older:

    The knave of a thousand years ago seems a fine old fellow full of spirit and fun, little malice in his soul; whereas, the knave of to-day seems a sour-visaged wight, with nothing to redeem him.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all; and, to the young, it comes with bitterest agony, because it takes them unawares. The older have learned to ever expect it.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
