"There are little gems all around us that can hold glimmers
of inspiration."                                    ~Richelle Mead

"You don't need to go to Rome, Prague or Vienna to find
wonderful architecture, amazing stories and surprising
hidden gems."                                      ~Alice Roberts

"I like to introduce a few lost gems when I can to fellow
word-lovers, and love genuinely some of them to make
to make a comeback."                        ~Susie Dent

"Proverbs are mental gems in the diamond fields of our
minds."                                         ~William R. Alger

"I haggle with French grannies over their old knick-knacks
and walk away with some real gems."     ~Rachel Khoo

"I don't know anybody that buys more shoes on eBay
than me. I like eBay because I can always find rare gems
in my size. I always have upwards of 40 sneakers in my
cart at any given time."                        ~P.J. Tucker

"I adore wearing gems but not because they are mine.
You can't possess radiance, you can only admire it."
                                                     ~Elizabeth Taylor

"Gems, in fact, are a species of mineral flowers; they
are the blossoms of the dark hard mine; and what they
want in perfume, they make up in durability."
                                            ~Harriet Beecher Stowe

"Improve your spare moments and they will become
the brightest gems in your life." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

                                                  ~Walter Anderson

"I think Tahoe is one of the hidden gems in the country,
and I've played a lot of golf around the country. You can't
beat the smells and the clean air and just the way it
makes you feel."                        ~Trent Dilfer

"A gem of short film has a sense of pure joy in
animation that is different than you see in a feature
film.'                                         ~John Lasseter

"The dew-bead. Gem of earth and sky begotten."
                                                 ~George Eliot

"The pearl is the queen of gems and the gem of queens."
                                               ~Grace Kelly
