I modified the phrase “stay gold” to showcase my theme of “The Golden Age of Charli.” “Stay gold” was used in a book by S.E. Hinson, The Outsiders.
Goodreads posted this question:
Johnny was telling Ponyboy to keep a bright and fresh outlook on life and not let the setbacks spoil him and make him jaded the way Dally’s time in jail had hardened him. It was an admonition for him to stay out of trouble and keep focused on his dreams to make something of himself.
While credit is given to the novel The Outsiders, by S.E.Hinton. Johnny was quoting a poem by Robert Frost.
