Famous quotes containing the words poetic and/or gems:
“There is nothing more poetic and terrible than the skyscrapers battle with the heavens that cover them.

—Federico García Lorca (18981936)
“Rich and rare were the gems she wore,
And a bright gold ring on her hand she bore.”
—Thomas Moore (17791852)
