Famous quotes containing the words cliff and/or young:

    It looked as if
    The shore was lucky in being backed by cliff,
    The cliff in being backed by continent;
    It looked as if a night of dark intent
    Was coming, and not only a night, an age.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    There were those young men,
    those village lands
    and that youthfulness of mine.
    People tell it
    like a tale
    that I must listen to.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
