Famous quotes containing the word yellow:

    If I admire my arms, my face,

    the happy genius of my household?

    Thrown into despair
    By those great honey-coloured
    Ramparts at your ear,
    Love you for yourself alone
    And not your yellow hair.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
