Concave Mirror

Famous quotes containing the words concave and/or mirror:

    I think he is not a pick-purse nor a horse-stealer, but
    for his verity in love, I do think him as concave as a covered goblet or a worm-eaten nut.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    She left the web, she left the loom,
    She made three paces through the room,
    She saw the water-lily bloom,
    She saw the helmet and the plume,
    She looked down to Camelot.
    Out flew the web and floated wide;
    The mirror cracked from side to side;
    “The curse is come upon me,” cried
    The Lady of Shalott.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
