Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or pond:

    For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.
    Bible: Hebrew Judges 8:24.

    There have been many stories told about the bottom, or rather no bottom, of this pond, which certainly had no foundation for themselves. It is remarkable how long men will believe in the bottomlessness of a pond without taking the trouble to sound it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
