Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or coast:
“Not the gold that fastens your sandal,
nor the gold reft
through your chiselled locks
is as gold as this last year’s leaf.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Have we even so much as discovered and settled the shores? Let a man travel on foot along the coast ... and tell me if it looks like a discovered and settled country, and not rather, for the most part, like a desolate island, and No-Man’s Land.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
