Golden Horde Raid

Famous quotes containing the words golden, horde and/or raid:

    “He hangs in shades the orange bright,
    Like golden lamps in a green night,
    And does in the pomegranates close
    Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
    He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
    And throws the melons at our feet;
    But apples plants of such a price
    No tree could ever bear them twice.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    “Yet resurrection is a sense of direction,
    resurrection is a bee-line,
    straight to the horde and plunder,
    the treasure, the store-room,
    the honeycomb....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Each venture
    Is a new beginning, a raid on the inarticulate
    With shabby equipment always deteriorating
    In the general mess of imprecision of feeling.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
