Famous quotes containing the words bold and/or beautiful:
“Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey,
Where wealth accumulates, and men decay:
Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade;
A breath can make them, as a breath has made;
But a bold peasantry, their country’s pride,
When once destroyed, can never be supplied.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
“O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!”
—Katharine Lee Bates (1859–1929)
