Famous quotes containing the words colour and/or image:
“The tears I shed
weren’t bitter things,
so ice-floes in spring
touched by the sun,
show colour of flowers.”

“The island dreams under the dawn
And great boughs drop tranquillity;
The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
A parrot sways upon a tree,
Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
