Famous quotes containing the words gleaming and/or spires:

    The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold,
    And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold:
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    A transition from an author’s books to his conversation, is too often like an entrance into a large city, after a distant prospect. Remotely, we see nothing but spires of temples, and turrets of palaces, and imagine it the residence of splendor, grandeur, and magnificence; but, when we have passed the gates, we find it perplexed with narrow passages, disgraced with despicable cottages, embarrassed with obstructions, and clouded with smoke.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
