Golden Era

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or era:

    I prefer “you” in the plural, I want “you,”
    You must come to me, all golden and pale
    Like the dew and the air.
    And then I start getting this feeling of exaltation.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.
    George Steiner (b. 1929)
