Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or ground:
“The paired butterflies are already yellow with August
Over the grass in the West garden;
They hurt me. I grow older.”

“If there were one who lived wholly without the use of money, the State itself would hesitate to demand it of him. But the rich man—not to make any invidious comparison—is always sold to the institution which makes him rich.... Thus his moral ground is taken from under his feet.”
