Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or stain:
“Seine and Piave are silver spoons,
But the spoonbowl-metal is thin and worn,”
—Stephen Vincent Benét (1898–1943)
“For wisdom is the property of the dead,
A something incompatible with life; and power,
Like everything that has the stain of blood,
A property of the living; but no stain
Can come upon the visage of the moon
When it has looked in glory from a cloud.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
