Earth proudly wears the Parthenon as the best gem upon her zone

The earth laughs in flowers.

Pride ruined the angels.

It is the privilege of any human work which is well done to invest the doer with a certain haughtiness.

Honest poverty is a gem that even a king might be proud to call his own - but I wish to sell out

There is no den in the wide world to hide a rogue. . . / Commit a crime, and the earth is made of glass.
