Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or crystal:

“They unhook their heavy swords
From golden and silver boughs;
But all that are killed in battle
Awaken to life again.”

“In a few days I’ll have lived one score and three days in this vale of tears. On I plod—always bored, often drunk, doing no penance for my faults—rather do I become more tolerant of myself from day to day, hardening my crystal heart with blasphemous humor and shunning only toothpicks, pathos, and poverty as being the three unforgivable things in life.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
