Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or mole:

    But wishes breed not, neither
    Can we fend off rock arrival,
    Lie watching yellow until the golden weather
    Breaks, O my heart’s blood, like a heart and hill.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The ignorance and darkness that is in us, no more hinders nor confines the knowledge that is in others, than the blindness of a mole is an argument against the quicksightedness of an eagle.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
