Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or cake:
“Never shall a young man,
Thrown into despair
By those great honey-coloured
Ramparts at your ear,
Love you for yourself alone
And not your yellow hair.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“It is such a beautiful day I had to write you a letter
From the tower, and to show Im not mad:
I only slipped on the cake of soap of the air
And drowned in the bathtub of the world....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
