Famous quotes containing the word years:

    And the immortal music of Chopin
    Which we had been discovering for several months
    Since we were fourteen years old. And coffee grounds,
    And the wonder of hands, and the wonder of the day
    When the child discovers her first dead hand.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    We never become really and genuinely our entire and honest selves until we are dead—and not then until we have been dead years and years. People ought to start dead and then they would be honest so much earlier.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
