Yellow Green

Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or green:

“The yellow pool has overflowed high up on Clooth-na-Bare,
For the wet winds are blowing out of the clinging air;
Like heavy flooded waters our bodies and our blood;
But purer than a tall candle before the Holy Rood
Is Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Sea waves are green and wet,
But up from where they die
Rise others vaster yet,
And those are brown and dry.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
