Soil Colour

Famous quotes containing the words soil and/or colour:

“Green, green is El Aghir. It has a railway station,
And the wealth of its soil has borne many another fruit:
A mairie, a school and an elegant Salle de Fetes.
Such blessings, as I remarked, in effect, to the waiter,
Are added unto them that have plenty of water.”
—Norman Cameron (b. 1905)

“The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love colour the most.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
