Famous quotes containing the words hemisphere, snow and/or cover:

    Rome, the city of visible history, where the past of a whole hemisphere seems moving in funeral procession with strange ancestral images and trophies gathered from afar.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    But pleasures are like poppies spread,
    You seize the flow’r, its bloom is shed;
    Or like the snow falls in the river,
    A moment white—then melts for ever;
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    See, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock; and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by;
    then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back; but my face shall not be seen.”
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 33:21-23.
