Famous quotes containing the words year and/or eleven:
“We hold on to hopes for next year every year in western Dakota: hoping that droughts will end; hoping that our crops won’t be hailed out in the few rainstorms that come; hoping that it won’t be too windy on the day we harvest, blowing away five bushels an acre; hoping ... that if we get a fair crop, we’ll be able to get a fair price for it. Sometimes survival is the only blessing that the terrifying angel of the Plains bestows.”
—Kathleen Norris (b. 1947)
“After eleven years I was composing
Love-letters again, broaching the word ‘wife’
Like a stored cask,”
—Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)
