Royal Goldsmith

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or goldsmith:

    But while meditating
    What we can’t or can
    Let’s keep starring man
    In the royal role.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Sweet smiling village, loveliest of the lawn,
    Thy sports are fled and all thy charms withdrawn;
    Amidst thy bowers the tyrant’s hand is seen,
    And desolation saddens all thy green;
    One only master grasps the whole domain,
    And half a tillage stints thy smiling plain;
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
