Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or age:
““Who chooseth me must give and hazard all he hath.”
Must give—for what? for lead, hazard for lead?
This casket threatens. Men that hazard all
Do it in hope of fair advantages;
A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“This movie deals with the epidemic of the way we live now.
What an inane cardplayer. And the age may support it.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
