Famous quotes containing the words crystal and/or globe:

    Madame, ye been alle beautee shrine
    As fer as cercled is the mapemounde:
    For as the crystal glorious ye shine,
    And like ruby been youre cheekes rounde.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    There are no fixtures in nature. The universe is fluid and volatile. Permanence is but a word of degrees. Our globe seen by God is a transparent law, not a mass of facts. The law dissolves the fact and holds it fluid.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
