England is not a country of granite and marble, but of chalk, marl, and clay.

The best of artists has no conception that the marble alone does not contain within itself.

A disaster where marble has been substituted for imagination.

For one country is different from another; its earth is different, as are its stones, wines, bread, meat, and everything that grows and thrives in a specific region.

There are no such things as the Elgin Marbles.

The thing I like most in my kitchen is my marble counters. Everybody said not to use marble because it's fragile, it stains, it cracks, and it doesn't remain beautiful. But I love marble.

I regard golf as an expensive way of playing marbles.

The Parthenon without the marbles is like a smile with a tooth missing.

I've tried not to treat Shakespeare as a marble giant.

The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has.
