Color Dark Violet

Famous quotes containing the words color, dark and/or violet:

    “The great God endows His children variously. To some he gives intellect—and they move the earth. To some he allots heart—and the beating pulse of humanity is theirs. But to some He gives only a soul, without intelligence—and these, who never grow up, but remain always His children, are God’s fools, kindly, elemental, simple, as if from His palette the Artist of all had taken one color instead of many.”
    —Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    “War is no strife
    To the dark house and the detested wife.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “At the violet hour, when the eyes and back
    Turn upward from the desk when the human engine waits
    Like a taxi throbbing waiting,”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
