Younger

Famous quotes containing the word younger:

“My tendency to nervousness in my younger days, in view of the fact of a number of near relatives on both my father’s and mother’s side of the house having become insane, gave some serious uneasiness.

Finally, in battle.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

At equal years.”
