Eastern Jewel

Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or jewel:

    I open with a clock striking, to beget an awful attention in the audience—it also marks the time, which is four o’clock in the morning, and saves a description of the rising sun, and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere.
    Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)

    No one makes mistakes. No one runs away
    Any more. I bite my lip and
    Turn to you. Maybe now you understand.
    The feeling is a jewel like a pearl.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
