Crystalline Forms

Famous quotes containing the words crystalline and/or forms:

    “While the stars that oversprinkle
    All the heavens, seem to twinkle
    With a crystalline delight;
    Keeping time, time, time,
    In a sort of Runic rhyme,
    To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
    From the bells, bells, bells, bells,”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “The sun, that brave man,
    Comes through boughs that lie in wait,
    That brave man.
    Green and gloomy eyes
    In dark forms of the grass
    Run away.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
