Metallic Gold

Famous quotes containing the words metallic and/or gold:

    Every civilization when it loses its inner vision and its cleaner energy, falls into a new sort of sordidness, more vast and more stupendous than the old savage sort. An Augean stable of metallic filth.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    We mustn’t touch them yet, but see and see!
    And what was green would by and by be gold.
    Their name was called the Gold Hesperidee.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
