Golden Laced

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or laced:

“His golden locks time hath to silver turned;
O time too swift, O swiftness never ceasing!
His youth ‘gainst time and age hath ever spurned,
But spurned in vain; youth waneth by increasing.
Beauty, strength, youth are flowers but fading seen;
Duty, faith, love are roots, and ever green.”
—George Peele (1559–1596)

“Time now to pack this humpty-dumpty
back the frightened way she came
and run alongnne, and run along now,
my stomach laced up like a football
for the game.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
