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)

    In foreign policy you have to wait twenty-five years to see how it comes out.
    James Reston (b. 1909)
