Famous quotes containing the word yellow:

    “For in this yellow grave of sand and sea
    A calling for colour calls with the wind
    That’s grave and gay as grave and sea
    Sleeping on either hand.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “Tom’s great yellow bronze mask all draped upon an iron framework. An inhibited, nerve-drawn; dropped face—as if hung on a scaffold of heavy private brooding; & thought.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “The yellow pool has overflowed high up on Clooth-na-Bare,
    For the wet winds are blowing out of the clinging air;
    Like heavy flooded waters our bodies and our blood;
    But purer than a tall candle before the Holy Rood
    Is Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
