Famous quotes containing the words double and/or diamond:
“Each in their double Eden closed
They fail to see the gardener there
Has planted Error....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“A poet who makes use of a worse word instead of a better, because the former fits the rhyme or the measure, though it weakens the sense, is like a jeweller, who cuts a diamond into a brilliant, and diminishes the weight to make it shine more.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
