Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or single:
“The idols have seen lots of poverty,
Snakes and gold and lice,
But not the truth....”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“Tired,
she looked up the path
her lover would take
as far as her eyes could see.
On the roads,
traffic ceased
at the end of day
as night slid over the sky.
The travellers pained wife
took a single step towards home,
said, Could he not have come at this instant?
and quickly craning her neck around,
looked up the path again.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
