Famous quotes containing the words crystalline and/or ice:

    “While the stars that oversprinkle
    All the heavens, seem to twinkle
    With a crystalline delight;

    In a sort of Runic rhyme,
    To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
    From the bells, bells, bells, bells,”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
