Restless Years

Famous quotes containing the words restless and/or years:

    “Man hath still either toys or care:
    But hath no root, nor to one place is tied,
    But ever restless and irregular,
    About this earth doth run and ride.
    He knows he hath a home, but scarce knows where;
    He says it is so far,
    That he has quite forgot how to go there.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “Days of plenty and years of peace;
    March of a strong land’s swift increase;
    Equal justice, right and law,
    Stately honor and reverend awe;”
    —Henry Holcomb Bennett (1863–1924)
