Famous quotes containing the words year by year and/or year:
“And year by year our memory fades
From all the circle of the hills.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“It had been cold since December. Snow fell, first,
At New Year and, from then until April, lay
On everything. Now it had melted, leaving
The gray grass like a pallet, closely pressed;
And dirt. The wind blew in the empty place.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
