Gold Disc Award

Famous quotes containing the words gold, disc and/or award:

“In relation to God, we are like a thief who has burgled the house of a kindly householder and been allowed to keep some of the gold. From the point of view of the lawful owner this gold is a gift; From the point of view of the burglar it is a theft. He must go and give it back. It is the same with our existence. We have stolen a little of God’s being to make it ours. God has made us a gift of it. But we have stolen it. We must return it.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)

“This is D.J., Disc Jockey to American turning off. Vietnam, hot dam.”
