Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or rose:
“Go, throng each others drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each others little heads
With mutual Flatterys golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“But where can we draw water,
Said Pearse to Connolly,
When all the wells are parched away?
O plain as plain can be
Theres nothing but our own red blood
Can make a right Rose Tree.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
