Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or arrow:

    But wishes breed not, neither
    Can we fend off rock arrival,
    Lie watching yellow until the golden weather
    Breaks, O my heart’s blood, like a heart and hill.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It is easy to dodge a spear in the daylight, but it is difficult to avoid an arrow in the dark.
