Golden Oriole

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or oriole:

    All in the golden afternoon
    Full leisurely we glide;
    For both our oars, with little skill,
    By little arms are plied,
    While little hands make vain pretense
    Our wanderings to guide.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole lurking behind it.
    Chinese proverb.
