Gold Saints

Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or saints:

    “‘She has got rings on every finger,
    Round one of them she have got three.
    She have gold enough around her middle
    To buy Northumberland that belongs to thee.”
    —Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 61–64)

    “I know we’re not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
