Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or star:

which is to say with gold in our mouth.
As new and smooth as a grape,
as pure as a pond in Alaska,
as good as the stem of a green bean
we are born and that ought to be enough....”

“Far star that tickles for me my sensitive plate
And fries a couple of ebon atoms white....”
