Famous quotes containing the words final and/or years:
“The final conflict will be between the Communists and the ex-Communists.”
—Ignazio Silone (1900–1978)
“Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.”
—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
