Golden Gloves Tournament

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or gloves:

    He hangs in shades the orange bright,
    Like golden lamps in a green night,
    And does in the pomegranates close
    Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
    He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
    And throws the melons at our feet;
    But apples plants of such a price
    No tree could ever bear them twice.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    I saw her hand, she has a leathern hand,
    A freestone-colored hand. I verily did think
    That her old gloves were on, but ‘twas her hands.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
