Famous quotes containing the words gold and/or fields:

    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)

    Smart lad, to slip betimes away
    From fields where glory does not stay,
    And early though the laurel grows
    It withers quicker than the rose.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
