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)
“I heard the old, old men say,
“All that’s beautiful drifts away
Like the waters.””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
