To gild refined GOLD, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light, To seek the beauteous eyes of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.	William Shakespeare : King John
Two everloving GOLD feathered birds, sit on the tree of eternity. One eats delicious fruits, the other is merely a witness; it tastes without tasting. One gets attached, the other remains detached but governs, all sees all, without being seen.	Rig Veda
Very often he that his money lends Loses both his GOLD and his friends.	C.H. Spurgeon
Words fitly spoken is like apples of GOLD in pictures of silver.	Proverb
