Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or book:

    O hurry to the ragged wood, for there
    I will drive all those lovers out and cry
    O my share of the world, O yellow hair!
    No one has ever loved but you and I.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I view askance a book that remains undisturbed for a year. Oughtn’t it to have a ticket of leave? I think I may safely say no book in my library remains unopened a year at a time, except my own works and Tennyson’s.
    Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
