Coloured Black Letters

Famous quotes containing the words coloured, black and/or letters:

    “Dry as a tomb, your coloured lids
    Shall not be latched while magic glides
    Sage on the earth and sky;

    There shall be serpents in your tides,
    Till all our sea-faiths die.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Matt and glossy on the thick black pages!”
