Base Year

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or year:

“And all the popular statesmen say
That purity built up the State
And after kept it from decay;
Admonish us to cling to that
And let all base ambition be,
For intellect would make us proud....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“But she is early up and out,
To trim the year or strip its bones;”
