Golden Imbued Arrows

Famous quotes containing the words golden, imbued and/or arrows:

    He, that holds fast the golden mean,
    And lives contentedly between
    The little and the great,
    Feels not the wants that pinch the poor,
    Nor plagues that haunt the rich man’s door,
    Imbitt’ring all his state.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)

    The truth is, that common-sense, or thought as it first emerges above the level of the narrowly practical, is deeply imbued with that bad logical quality to which the epithet metaphysical is commonly applied; and nothing can clear it up but a severe course of logic.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    Your master Robin Hood lies dead,
    Therefore sigh as you sing.

    Here lie his primer and his beads,
    His bent bow and his arrows keen,
    His good sword and his holy cross:
    Anthony Munday (1553–1633)
