stay gold

Employs a variety of meanings, all of which gravitate around themes of maintaining self, integrity, and youth. Used extensively in the straight edge doctrine of pure living to mean "stay free of drugs, alcohol, and other vices."

Derived from the last line of Robert Frost's acclaimed poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay".

"Stay--stay gold. Stay--true to yourself, to your friends, and never let go."
