Marble :
see: the hopelessness of efforts
work on it: you will get an impossible task, or you will be dealing with a ruthless man
polish marble: you suddenly will get a great fortune
marble columns: you have beautiful, but unrealizable dream or great, but unattainable goal
marble staircase: you feel that you deserve more
a marble tombstone: you are stand-offish and haughty
watch or sit at a marble table: a wish that in your opinion soon will come true, or a project that you hope to realize soon – they will be realized only after many hardships
sit at a marble table with company: keeping company with a man without scruples will bring difficulties
crushed marble: your behaviour will discourage a lot of people
