Summary
This quote, from Robert Frost's poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay," captures the transience and impermanence of life's beauty and innocence. It suggests that the beautiful and precious things in life, represented by "gold," are fleeting and will inevitably fade away with the passage of time. Just as dawn transforms into day, moments of joy and purity are short-lived. This quote serves as a reminder to treasure and appreciate the fleeting moments of beauty and goodness that we encounter in life.
