Famous quotes containing the word grains:

Robed in the long friends,
The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
Secret by the unmourning water
Of the riding Thames.
After the first death, there is no other.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
And the beauteous land.”

and mixed with quartz grains, rose and amethyst.”
