Famous quotes containing the words tracks, fool and/or gold:
“Our law very often reminds one of those outskirts of cities where you cannot for a long time tell how the streets come to wind about in so capricious and serpent-like a manner. At last it strikes you that they grew up, house by house, on the devious tracks of the old green lanes; and if you follow on to the existing fields, you may often find the change half complete.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“He’s a fool that marries, but he’s a greater that does not marry a fool; what is wit in a wife good for, but to make a man a cuckold?”
—William Wycherley (1640–1716)
“How quickly nature falls into revolt
When gold becomes her object!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
