Distance Light Travels

Famous quotes containing the words distance, light and/or travels:

    And then he heard some old forgotten talk
    At a short distance like a hundred miles
    Filling the air with its secrecy,
    And was afraid of all the living air....

    Are not the days of my life few? Let me alone, that I may find a little comfort before I go, never to return, to the land of gloom and deep darkness, the land of gloom and chaos, where light is like darkness.

    ... forgotten signs
    all bringing the soul’s travels to a place
    of origin, a well
    under the lake where the Muse moves.
