Golden Buddha

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or buddha:

    “Venerandam,
    In the Cretan’s phrase, with the golden crown, Aphrodite,
    Cypri munimenta sortita est, mirthful, oricalchi, with golden
    Girdles and breast bands, thou with dark eyelids
    Bearing the golden bough of Argicida.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    and overrules the oncoming roar
    of tragic life that fills alleys and avenues;
    it blocks the way of pedicabs, police, convoys.”
