Marble Falls

Famous quotes containing the words marble and/or falls:

    “Hath homely age th’ alluring beauty took
    From my poor cheek? Then he hath wasted it.
    Are my discourses dull? Barren my wit?
    If voluble and sharp discourse be marred,
    Unkindness blunts it more than marble hard.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    as a hyacinth,
    hidden in a far valley,
    perishes upon burnt grass.”
