Plautus
Roman - Playwright
254 BC - 184 BC

I had much rather be adorned by beauty of character than by jewels. Jewels are the gift of fortune, character comes from within.

Plautus

I either write the book or sell the jewels. And I'm kinda sentimental about the jewels.

Ava Gardner

Jewels! It's my belief that when woman was made, jewels were invented only to make her the more mischievous.

Douglas William Jerrold

I am a collector of jewels, old jewels.

Alessandro Michele

I've never blown an ugly bubble. Never. They're all beautiful. They're like jewels, transient jewels.

Tom Noddy

I never want to overstay my welcome for any character. I would rather people are excited by the ideas a character generates in them rather than feeling bored and wishing he would just go away.

Rupert Friend

The house, while sound in wind and limb, was described as being of 'no character.' We didn't think then that it had anything but character, rather sinister perhaps, but definitely character.

Margery Fish

A good name is seldom regained. When character is gone, all is gone, and one of the richest jewels of life is lost forever.

Josiah Johnson Hawes

I'd rather wear jewels in my hair than anywhere else. The face should have the advantage of this brilliance.

Hedy Lamarr

The chief character in this narrative is the Caribbean Sea, one of the world's most alluring bodies of water, a rare gem among the oceans, defined by the islands that form a chain of lovely jewels to the north and east

James A. Michener

If it's a really good gift, I love receiving it, like jewels, small islands.

Gina Gershon

Where does a character come from? Because a character, at the end of the day, a character will be the combination of the writing of the character, the voicing of the character, the personality of the character, and what the character looks like.

Brian Henson

Within a single scene, it seems to be unwise to have access to the inner reflections of more than one character. The reader generally needs a single character as the means of perception, as the character to whom the events are happening, as the character with whom he is to empathize in order to have the events of the writing happen to him.

John Ciardi

The flowers are Nature's jewels, with whose wealth she decks her summer beauty.

George Croly

Pleasure has ever more been represented by poets and by painters as clothed in perpetual smiles and adorned with the richest jewels; and in real life, we have known many who, allured by her deceptions, blandishments, and hollow but showy temptations, have followed as she pointed until ruin has befallen them.

John Tyler

If you wish to be a mine of jewels, open the deep ocean within your heart.

Rumi
