Famous quotes containing the word dim:
“Nor dim nor red, like God’s own head,
The glorious Sun uprist:”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
“The fabric of my faithful love
No power shall dim or ravel
Whilst I stay here—but oh, my dear,
If I should ever travel!”
—Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
“When the spirit brings light into our minds, it dispels darkness. We see it, as we do that of the sun at noon, and need not the twilight of reason to show it us. This light from heaven is strong, clear, and pure carries its own demonstration with it; and we may as naturally take a glow-worm to assist us to discover the sun, as to examine the celestial ray by our dim candle, reason.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
