Famous quotes containing the word years:

    “The real stumbling-block of totalitarian régimes is not the spiritual need of men for freedom of thought; it is men’s inability to stand the physical and nervous strain of a permanent state of excitement, except during a few years of their youth.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “Did she in touching that lone wing
    Recall the years before her mind
    Became a bitter, an abstract thing...?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
