Single Crystal Ingots

Famous quotes containing the words single, crystal and/or ingots:

    There is no single face in nature, because every eye that looks upon it, sees it from its own angle. So every mans spice-box seasons his own food.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    If Los Angeles has been called “the capital of crackpots” and “the metropolis of isms,” the native Angeleno can not fairly attribute all of the city’s idiosyncrasies to the newcomer—at least not so long as he consults the crystal ball for guidance in his business dealings and his wife goes shopping downtown in beach pajamas.
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    If thou art rich, thou’rt poor,
    For like an ass, whose back with ingots bows,
    Thou bear’st thy heavy riches but a journey,
    And death unloads thee.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
