Famous quotes containing the words year and/or birth:

    “The first sparrow of spring! The year beginning with younger hope than ever!... What at such a time are histories, chronologies, traditions, and all written revelations? The brooks sing carols and glees to the spring.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “They do not live in the world,
    Are not in time and space.
    From birth to death hurled
    No word do they have, not one
    To plant a foot upon,
    Were never in any place.”
    —Edwin Muir (1887–1959)
