Years Older

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or older:

    “... we Northerners have become too much driven by the idea that in twenty years we will live, not now: because by that time our savings and the accrued interest will make it possible.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “When as a child I laughed and wept,
    Time crept.
    When as a youth I waxed more bold,
    Time strolled.
    When I became a full-grown man,
    Time RAN.
    When older still I daily grew,
    Time FLEW.
    Soon I shall find, in passing on,
    Time gone.
    O Christ! wilt Thou have saved me then?
    Amen.”
    —Henry Twells (1823–1900)
