Crossed Antiprismatic Prism

Famous quotes containing the words crossed and/or prism:

    “Twilight and evening bell.
    And after that the dark!
    And may there be no sadness of farewell,
    When I embark;

    For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
    The flood may bear me far,
    I hope to see my Pilot face to face
    When I have crossed the bar.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “Neither can I do anything to please critics belonging to the good old school of “projected biography,” who examine an author’s work, which they do not understand, through the prism of his life, which they do not know.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
