Emeralds Quotes - Page 2

• Cobalt is a divine color and there is nothing as fine for putting an atmosphere round things. Carmine is the red of wine and is warm and lively like wine. The same goes for emerald green too. It's false economy to dispense with them, with those colors. Cadmium as well.

• Y más allá de las praderas eternas y los pastos esmeralda, las madrigueras de conejos y los robles y serbales cubiertos de musgo y las casas "resbaladizas y descuidadas" de las ranas, el viento con aroma a bosque corría entre las hojas y soplaba alrededor del velo gris que se sumergía bajo las colinas, arremolinándose en una niebla, difuminando los bordes del bosque lejano.

• This house has been far out at sea all night, The woods crashing through darkness, the booming hills, Winds stampeding the fields under the window Floundering black astride and blinding wet Till day rose; then under an orange sky The hills had new places, and wind wielded Blade-light, luminous black and emerald, Flexing like the lens of a mad eye.

• Science has discovered much. The engineering is wonderful, epicycles and all. And yet, as we look at this vast, elaborate structure built on layer and layer of complex constituents, can we help but be reminded of the Land of Oz. Have we found the Emerald City? Is this what we were searching for? Is this the ultimate fabric of reality? Is this all there is?

• The field was even greener than my boy's mind had pictured it. In later years, friends of ours visited Ireland and said the grass there was plenty green all right, but that not even the Emerald Isle itself was as green as the grass that grew in Ebbets Field.

• La luz rosa pálido del amanecer centelleaba en ramas, hojas y piedras. Cada brizna de hierba estaba tallada en esmeralda, cada goteo de agua se convertía en diamante. Tanto las flores como las setas lucían capas de cristal. Incluso los charcos de barro tenían un brillante brillo marrón. A través del verdor resplandeciente, las tiendas negras de sus hermanos se cubrían de un fino glaseado de hielo. Así que, después de todo, hay magia más allá del Muro.

• I made it," you said, gruffly, "for you." You shoved it onto my finger. It was roughly carved, shaped from a lump of something colourful and cold...a ring made entirely from a gemstone. It was beautiful. It glinted emerald greens and blood reds over my skin, and had tiny flecks of gold catching the light. I couldn't stop staring at it. "Why?" I asked. You didn't answer that. Instead you touched the ring gently and looked piercingly at me, unsaid questions in your eyes.

• Como otras cosas bellas de este mundo, su fin (el de un astil) es ser bella; y, en proporción a su belleza, recibe permiso para ser inútil de otro modo. No culpamos a las esmeraldas y los rubíes porque no podamos convertirlos en cabezas de martillo.

• Look at that mallard as he floats on the lake; see his elevated head glittering with emerald green, his amber eyes glancing in the light! Even at this distance, he has marked you, and suspects that you bear no goodwill towards him, for he sees that you have a gun, and he has many a time been frightened by its report, or that of some other. The wary bird draws his feet under his body, springs upon then, opens his wings, and with loud quacks bids you farewell.

• Saying Good-bye to the God of Disease (2) Thousands of willow branches in a spring wind. Six hundred million of China, land of the gods, and exemplary like the emperors Shun and Yao. A scarlet rain of peach blossoms turned into waves and emerald mountains into bridges. Summits touch the sky. We dig with silver shovels and iron arms shake the earth and the Three Rivers. God of plagues, where are you going? We burn paper boats and bright candles to light his way to heaven.
