Eastern Jewel

Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or jewel:

“But we are spirits of another sort.
I with the morning’s love have oft made sport,
And like a forester the groves may tread
Even till the eastern gate, all fiery-red,
Opening on Neptune with fair blessèd beams,
Turns unto yellow gold his salt green streams.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“They would probably help, in some trying time to come, to keep the jewel of liberty within the family of freedom.”
