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 dont believe in the golden ages, you see.... Civilization is the arteriosclerosis of culture.”
—Henry Miller (18911980)
“No, not another song, said he,
Because my lady came
A year ago for the first time
At midnight to my room,
And I must lie between the sheets
When the clock begins to chime.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
