Exterior Colors

Famous quotes containing the words exterior and/or colors:

    This idoll which you terme Virginitie,
    Is neither essence subject to the eie,
    No, nor to any one exterior sence,
    Nor hath it any place of residence,
    Nor is’t of earth or mold celestiall,
    Or capable of any forme at all.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    Color is my day-long obsession, joy and torment. To such an extent indeed that one day, finding myself at the deathbed of a woman who had been and still was very dear to me, I caught myself in the act of focusing on her temples and automatically analyzing the succession of appropriately graded colors which death was imposing on her motionless face.
    Claude Monet (1840–1926)
