Living Coral

Famous quotes containing the words living and/or coral:

    “Nature is a temple where living pillars
    Sometimes emit confused words;
    Man passes through forests of symbols
    Which observe him with familiar looks.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “Full fathom five thy father lies,
    Of his bones are coral made;
    Those are pearls that were his eyes;
    Nothing of him that doth fade,
    But doth suffer a sea-change
    Into something rich and strange.
    Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
    Ding-dong.
    Hark! Now I hear them—ding-dong bell.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
