Famous quotes containing the word glass:

    Vast chain of Being, which from God began,
    Natures aethereal, human, angel, man,
    Beast, bird, fish, insect! what no eye can see,
    No glass can reach; from Infinite to thee,
    From thee to Nothing!—
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    We all drew on the comfort which is given out by the major works of Mozart, which is as real and material as the warmth given up by a glass of brandy.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    ... this I conceive to be no time to prate of moral influences. Our men’s nerves require their accustomed narcotics and a glass of whiskey is a powerful friend in a sunstroke, and these poor fellows fall senseless on their heavy drills.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)
