Engraving Showing

Famous quotes containing the words engraving and/or showing:

    For I so truly thee bemoane,
    That I shall weep though I be Stone:
    Until my Tears, still drooping, wear
    My breast, themselves engraving there.
    There at me feet shalt thou be laid,
    Of purest Alabaster made:
    For I would have thine Image be
    White as I can, though not as Thee.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    These foliaceous heaps lie along the bank like the slag of a furnace, showing that Nature is “in full blast” within.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
