Golden Era

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or era:

    How doth the little crocodile
    Improve his shining tale,
    And pour the waters of the Nile
    On every golden scale!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
