“It's not the years, its the miles! ”
“Mile by mile, it's a trial; yard by yard, it's hard; but inch by inch, it's a cinch.”
“It's never crowded along the extra mile”
“High in the North in a land called Svithjod there is a mountain. It is a hundred miles long and a hundred miles high and once every thousand years a little bird comes to this mountain to sharpen its beak. When the mountain has thus been worn away a single day of eternity will have passed.”
“It's not the years in the life, its the life in the years”
“It's miles worse for you than that; I'm in love with your gamekeeper.”
