Year Reign

Famous quotes containing the words year and/or reign:

“It had been cold since December. Snow fell, first,
At New Year and, from then until April, lay
On everything. Now it had melted, leaving
The gray grass like a pallet, closely pressed;
And dirt. The wind blew in the empty place.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“No one would have doubted his ability to reign had he never been emperor.”
—Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)
