Famous quotes containing the word gold:

    And the Goddess?
    She stands
    between the worlds.

    her breast bare, her bare arms
    braceleted with gold snakes.

    We mustn’t touch them yet, but see and see!
    And what was green would by and by be gold.
    Their name was called the Gold Hesperidee.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Not the gold that fastens your sandal,
    nor the gold reft
    through your chiselled locks
    is as gold as this last year’s leaf.
