Famous quotes containing the words years and/or death:

    Miss Knag still aimed at youth, although she had shot beyond it, years ago.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    As death, when we come to consider it closely, is the true goal of our existence, I have formed during the last few years such close relations with this best and truest friend of mankind, that his image is not only no longer terrifying to me, but is indeed very soothing and consoling! And I thank my God for graciously granting me the opportunity ... of learning that death is the key which unlocks the door to our true happiness.
    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791)
