Sylvia Townsend Warner Quote

You are only young once. At the time it seems endless, and is gone in a flash; and then for a very long time you are old.


Swans on an Autumn River (1966)


You are only young once. At the time it seems endless, and is gone in a flash; and then for a very long time you are old.

You are only young once. At the time it seems endless, and is gone in a flash; and then for a very long time you are old.

You are only young once. At the time it seems endless, and is gone in a flash; and then for a very long time you are old.

You are only young once. At the time it seems endless, and is gone in a flash; and then for a very long time you are old.
