Famous quotes containing the word gold:

    And the Goddess?
    She stands
    between the worlds.
    She is ivory,
    her breast bare, her bare arms
    braceleted with gold snakes.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    There is, of course, a gold mine or a buried treasure on every mortgaged homestead. Whether the farmer ever digs for it or not, it is there, haunting his daydreams when the burden of debt is most unbearable.
    Fawn M. Brodie (1915–1981)
