Golden Lady

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or lady:

    The word “civilization” to my mind is coupled with death. When I use the word, I see civilization as a crippling, thwarting thing, a stultifying thing. For me it was always so. I don’t believe in the golden ages, you see.... Civilization is the arteriosclerosis of culture.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    The Lady Amelia would not for worlds have had the de Courcy blood defiled; but gold she thought could not defile.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
