Famous quotes containing the words golden, state, warriors and/or season:
“With sweet May dews my wings were wet,
And Phoebus fird my vocal rage;
He caught me in his silken net,
And shut me in his golden cage.
He loves to sit and hear me sing,
Then, laughing, sports and plays with me;
Then stretches out my golden wing,
And mocks my loss of liberty.”

Our gayness and our gilt are all besmirched
With rainy marching in the painful field.”

good, I am faithful to
ebb and flow, I fall
in season and now
is a time of ripening.”
