Yellow Banners

Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or banners:

    It was a quiet Sunday morning, with more of the auroral rosy and white than of the yellow light in it, as if it dated from earlier than the fall of man, and still preserved a heathenish integrity.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The banners flashing through the trees
    Make their blood dance and chain their eyes;
    That bugle-music on the breeze
    Arrests them with a charm’d surprise.
    Banner by turns and bugle woo:
    Ye shy recluses, follow too!
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
