― Alan Maiccon “Each pearl is a jewel of wisdom, wrestled from struggle and strung in sequence to create infinite insight and compassion for the mermaid who wears them.” They are only ones who believed in you when no one else did. ― Lailah Gifty Akita “In life collect friends like precious pearls. ― John Steinbeck “Life is like a precious pearl.” ― Jalaluddin Rumi “Pearls were accidents, and the finding of one was luck, a little pat on the back by God or the gods or both.” Hincks “All the tears which we creatures shed for Him are not tears as many think but pearls….” Young “Pearls are at the heart of an oyster.” The oyster has taken what was at first an irritation and intrusion and uses it to enrich its value.” “As a pearl is formed and its layers grow, a rich iridescence begins to glow. But that’s because my pearls are black, hers were white.” I think that one string of pearls is just fine. Why wear one if you can wear two, or something to that effect. – Coco Chanel “Coco Chanel used to talk about wearing more than one string of pearls. – Doris Lessing “Why wear one string when you can wear two?” Perhaps pearls are a girl’s best friend after all.”
– Jackie Kennedy “You can’t ever go wrong with pearls.
