Famous quotes containing the words gay and/or parade:
“Flowers and fruits are always fit presents; flowers, because they are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all of the utilities of the world. These gay natures contrast with the somewhat stern countenance of ordinary nature: they are like music heard out of a work-house.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The parade was here, but it disappeared around a corner.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
