The Year

Famous quotes containing the word year:

    “I know not whether Laws be right
    Or whether Laws be wrong;
    All that we know who live in gaol
    Is that the wall is strong;
    And that each day is like a year,
    A year whose days are long.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “This generation is very sure to plant corn and beans each new year precisely as the Indians did centuries ago and taught the first settlers to do, as if there were a fate in it.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
