Carbon has a bunch of stable forms (including diamonds), at least four of which are known on Earth, and as graphite (at least) it can become liquid.

It’s going to be a special day when we can pull diamonds out of Uranus. Normally you have to go to prison to find a drilling platform capable of such a deed.

If you want to pull diamonds out of Uranus, you'll need a proctologist.
