Rainbow Crystal

Famous quotes containing the words rainbow and/or crystal:

    Once it chanced that I stood in the very abutment of a rainbow’s arch, which filled the lower stratum of the atmosphere, tinging the grass and leaves around, and dazzling me as if I looked through colored crystal. It was a lake of rainbow light, in which, for a short while, I lived like a dolphin. If it had lasted longer it might have tinged my employments and my life.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Madame, ye been alle beautee shrine
    As fer as cercled is the mapemounde:
    For as the crystal glorious ye shine,
    And like ruby been youre cheekes rounde.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
