Light Golden

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or golden:

“Ye say they all have passed away,
That noble race and brave;
That their light canoes have vanished
From off the crested wave;
That, mid the forests where they roamed,
There rings no hunters’ shout;
But their name is on your waters,
Ye may not wash it out.”
—Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)

“I hope we shall give them a thorough drubbing this summer, and then change our tomahawk into a golden chain of friendship.”
