Yellow Alarm

Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or alarm:

    O hurry to the ragged wood, for there
    I will drive all those lovers out and cry
    O my share of the world, O yellow hair!
    No one has ever loved but you and I.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Generally speaking, the political news, whether domestic or foreign, might be written today for the next ten years with sufficient accuracy. Most revolutions in society have not power to interest, still less alarm us; but tell me that our rivers are drying up, or the genus pine dying out in the country, and I might attend.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
