Famous quotes containing the words poets, included, golden, treasury and/or scottish:

    I have heard that hysterical women say
    They are sick of the palette and fiddle-bow,
    Of poets that are always gay,
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The Heavenly eye,
    Much wider than the sky,
    Wherein they all included were,
    The glorious Soul, that was the King
    Made to possess them, did appear
    A small and little thing!
    Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    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)

    Listen to me, imbecile. If the Treasury is important, then human life is not. This is clear. All those who think like you ought to admit this reasoning and count their lives for nothing because they hold money for everything.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    We’ll never know the worth of water till the well go dry.
    —18th-century Scottish proverb, collected in James Kelly, Complete Collection of Scottish Proverbs, no. 351 (1721)
