I adore wearing gems, but not because they are mine. You can't possess radiance, you can only admire it. View quotes by Elizabeth Taylor
Rich and rare were the gems she wore,
And a bright gold ring on her wand she bore (Irish Melodies) View quotes by Thomas Moore
There is strength deep-bedded in our hearts, of which we reck but little till the shafts of heaven have pierced its fragile dwelling. Must not earth be rent before her gems are found? View quotes by Felicia Hemans
