Famous quotes containing the word years:

    “It seemed the mockery of hell to fold
    The rottenness of eighty years in gold.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “It is now many years that men have resorted to the forest for fuel and the materials of the arts: the New Englander and the New Hollander, the Parisian and the Celt, the farmer and Robin Hood, Goody Blake and Harry Gill; in most parts of the world, the prince and the peasant, the scholar and the savage, equally require still a few sticks from the forest to warm them and cook their food. Neither could I do without them.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
