Quotations is about words, written and spoken throughout history. Words speak to us through our eyes and our ears. They enrich our lives, allow us to communicate thoughts to others, and sometimes, last for generations. This podcast explores not only the words, but the speaker, author, figure, or character who originated them. To whom were they said or written? What was their intended effect and on whom? What was the originator thinking? Find out each episode and we discover new quotations, some familiar, some not!

William Butler Yeats was a famous Irish poet of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He wrote a lot about loss and death in war, but today's poem is a bit different. It's about loss in a different form, a loss of love. Sad, but accepting. Sorrowful, but kind. It is the type of poem with which we can all relate. Join me as we explore When You are Old.
