Color Glass

Famous quotes containing the words color and/or glass:

“Rain falls into the open eyes of the dead
Again again with its pointless sound
When the moon finds them they are the color of everything”

“We are little airy creatures,
All of different voice and features:
One of us in glass is set,
One of us you’ll find in jet,
T’other you may see in tin,
And the fourth a box within;
If the fifth you should pursue,
It can never fly from you.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
