Golden Palm

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or palm:

    “Who chooseth me must give and hazard all he hath.”
    Must give—for what? for lead, hazard for lead?
    This casket threatens. Men that hazard all
    Do it in hope of fair advantages;
    A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The body, what is it, Father, but a sign
    To love the force that grows us, to give back
    What in Thy palm is senselessness and mud?
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
