Famous quotes containing the word years:
“He sighed with relief. He had got the job. He was safe.
Putting on his gown, he prepared for the long years to come....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The child-rearing years are relatively short in our increased life span. It is hard for young women caught between diapers and formulas to believe, but there are years and years of freedom ahead. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I’d relaxed, allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl’s eyes.”
