State Golden Gloves

Famous quotes containing the words state, golden and/or gloves:

    In the most high and palmy state of Rome,
    A little ere the mightiest Julius fell,
    The graves stood tenantless and the sheeted dead
    Did squeak and gibber in the Roman streets.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Absolutely speaking, Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you is by no means a golden rule, but the best of current silver. An honest man would have but little occasion for it. It is golden not to have any rule at all in such a case.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I saw her hand, she has a leathern hand,
    A freestone-colored hand. I verily did think
    That her old gloves were on, but ‘twas her hands.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
