Famous quotes containing the word appearance:

    Now the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 24:17.

    The whole appearance is a toy. For this,
    The dove in the belly builds his nest and coos,
    Selah, tempestuous bird. How is it that
    The rivers shine and hold their mirrors up,
    Like excellence collecting excellence?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I think I am one of those who can manage not to take on a completely different appearance under their own glance.
    Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
