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)

    “—All this Dark Age machinery
    On which we had tormented you
    To life.”
    —William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)

    “A violet by a mossy stone
    Half hidden from the eye!
    Fair as a star, when only one
    Is shining in the sky.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
