Golden Clock

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or clock:

    “She stood breast high amid the corn,
    Clasp’d by the golden light of morn,”
    —Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

    “Whoever considers morality the main objective of human existence, seems to me like a person who defines the purpose of a clock as not going wrong. The first objective for a clock, is, however, that it does run; not going wrong is an additional regulative function. If not a watch’s greatest accomplishment were not going wrong, unwound watches might be the best.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
