Golden Lion Award

Famous quotes containing the words golden, lion and/or award:

    The Maiden caught me in the Wild,
    Where I was dancing merrily;
    She put me into her Cabinet
    And Lock’d me up with a golden Key.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    The lion shall never lie down with the lamb. The lion eternally shall devour the lamb, the lamb eternally shall be devoured. Man knows the great consummation in the flesh, the sensual ecstasy, and that is eternal. Also the spiritual ecstasy of unanimity, that is eternal. But the two are separate and never to be confused.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
