Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or gold:
“They have their belief, these poor Tibet people, that Providence sends down always an Incarnation of Himself into every generation. At bottom some belief in a kind of pope! At bottom still better, a belief that there is a Greatest Man; that he is discoverable; that, once discovered, we ought to treat him with an obedience which knows no bounds. This is the truth of Grand Lamaism; the “discoverability” is the only error here.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
“You are as gold
as the half-ripe grain
that merges to gold again.
as white as the white rain....”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
