Famous quotes containing the word years:
“But he answered his father, Listen! For all these years I have been working like a slave for you, and I have never disobeyed your command; yet you have never given me even a young goat so that I might celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours came back, who has devoured your property with prostitutes, you killed the fatted calf for him!’”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 15:29,30.
“In the years of President Ford
Decorum and calm were restored.
He did nothing hateful
For which we were grateful
But terribly, terribly bored.”
