Mensagem:  Thanks, bro.  I was thinking of "to stand the test of time", but the meaning is a little different.

from The Free Dictionary
stand the test of time
Prov. to be well regarded; to last for a long time. Bill and Nancy just celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary. Their marriage has stood the test of time. The singer's work was not popular while she was alive, but it has stood the test of time.
