Famous quotes containing the words violet and/or blue:
“It were as wise to cast a violet into a crucible that you might discover the formal principle of its colour and odour, as seek to transfuse from one language into another the creations of a poet. The plant must spring again from its seed, or it will bear no flower—and this is the burthen of the curse of Babel.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
“So as to comprehend that the sky is blue everywhere one doesn’t need to travel around the world.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
