Difference Tone

Famous quotes containing the words difference and/or tone:

“The difference between false memories and true ones is the same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant.”
—Salvador Dali (1904–1989)

“There was about all the Romans a heroic tone peculiar to ancient life. Their virtues were great and noble, and these virtues made them great and noble. They possessed a natural majesty that was not put on and taken off at pleasure, as was that of certain eastern monarchs when they put on or took off their garments of Tyrian dye. It is hoped that this is not wholly lost from the world, although the sense of earthly vanity inculcated by Christianity may have swallowed it up in humility.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
