Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or pride:
“There is, of course, a gold mine or a buried treasure on every mortgaged homestead. Whether the farmer ever digs for it or not, it is there, haunting his daydreams when the burden of debt is most unbearable.”
—Fawn M. Brodie (1915–1981)
“For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favour singled:
His cap pulled low upon a face
Where pride and shame were mingled.”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
