Glass Beads

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or beads:

“Or your liquors seep to me, in this glass capsule,
Dulling and stilling.

But colourless. Colourless.”

“Scarfs, garters, gold, amuse his riper stage,
And beads and prayer-books are the toys of age:
Pleased with this bauble still, as that before;
‘Till tired he sleeps, and life’s poor play is o’er.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
