Golden Buddha

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or buddha:

“We are too civil to books. For a few golden sentences we will turn over and actually read a volume of four or five hundred pages.”

“After Buddha was dead, his shadow was still shown for centuries in a cave—a tremendous, gruesome shadow. God is dead; but given the way of man, there may still be caves for thousands of years in which his shadow will be shown.—And we—we still have to vanquish his shadow, too.”
