Famous quotes containing the word years:
“We know that the nature of genius is to provide idiots with ideas twenty years later.”
—Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
“A person of mature years and ripe development, who is expecting nothing from literature but the corroboration and renewal of past ideas, may find satisfaction in a lucidity so complete as to occasion no imaginative excitement, but young and ambitious students are not content with it. They seek the excitement because they are capable of the growth that it accompanies.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
