Gold Silver

Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or silver:

“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”

“Listen where thou art sitting
Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave,
In twisted braids of lilies knitting
The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair;
Listen for dear honour’s sake,
Goddess of the silver lake,
Listen and save.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
