Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or bars:

    If it were possible to cure evils by lamentation and to raise the dead with tears, then gold would be a less valuable thing than weeping.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    Stone walls do not a prison make,
    Nor iron bars a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage;
    If I have freedom in my love
    And in my soul am free,
    Angels alone, that soar above,
    Enjoy such liberty.
    Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)
