Silver Ink

Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or ink:

“His golden locks time hath to silver turned;
O time too swift, O swiftness never ceasing!
His youth ‘gainst time and age hath ever spurned,
But spurned in vain; youth waneth by increasing.
Beauty, strength, youth are flowers but fading seen;
Duty, faith, love are roots, and ever green.”
—George Peele (1559–1596)

“The very ink in which history is written is merely fluid prejudice.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
