Original Colours

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or colours:

    “Painting myself for others, I have painted my inward self with colors clearer than my original ones. I have no more made my book than my book has made me—a book consubstantial with its author, concerned with my own self, an integral part of my life; not concerned with some third-hand, extraneous purpose, like all other books.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “In a borealic iceberg came Victoria; she
    Knew Prince Albert’s tall memorial took the colours of the floreal
    And the borealic iceberg;”
    —Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
