Famous quotes containing the word years:
“I Years had been from Home
And now before the Door
I dared not enter,”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“For six years you shall sow your land and gather in its yield; but the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor of your people may eat; and what they leave the wild animals may eat. You shall do the same with your vineyard, and with your olive orchard.”
