Million Years

Famous quotes containing the words million and/or years:

    “It is impossible for a stranger traveling through the United States to tell from the appearance of the people or the country whether he is in Toledo, Ohio, or Portland, Oregon. Ninety million Americans cut their hair in the same way, eat each morning exactly the same breakfast, tie up the small girls’ curls with precisely the same kind of ribbon fashioned into bows exactly alike; and in every way all try to look and act as much like all the others as they can.”
    —Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865–1922)

    “The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalms, 90:10.

    The Book of Common Prayer (1662)
