Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or apples:
“All in the golden afternoon
Full leisurely we glide;
For both our oars, with little skill,
By little arms are plied,
While little hands make vain pretense
Our wanderings to guide.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“Nature, hating art and pains,
Baulks and baffles plotting brains;
Casualty and Surprise
Are the apples of her eyes;
But she dearly loves the poor,
And, by marvel of her own,
Strikes the loud pretender down.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
