Mongol Golden Horde

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or horde:

    “Fasten your hair with a golden pin,
    And bind up every wandering tress;
    I bade my heart build these poor rhymes:
    It worked at them, day out, day in,
    Building a sorrowful loveliness
    Out of the battles of old times.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    resurrection is a bee-line,
    straight to the horde and plunder,
    the treasure, the store-room,
    the honeycomb....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
