Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or leaves:
“Arrive in the afternoon, the late light slanting
In diluted gold bars across the boulevard brag
Of proud, seamed faces with mercy and murder hinting
here, there, interrupting, all deep and debonair,
The pink paint on the innocence of fear;
Walk in a gingerly manner up the hall.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“‘Whoever it is that leaves him out so late,
When other creatures have gone to stall and bine,
Ought to be told to come and take him in.’”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
