Famous quotes containing the word glow:
“It had been a moving, tranquil apotheosis, immersed in the transfiguring sunset glow of decline and decay and extinction. An old family, already grown too weary and too noble for life and action, had reached the end of its history, and its last utterances were sounds of music: a few violin notes, full of the sad insight which is ripeness for death.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“Sensuality reconciles us with the human race. The misanthropy of the old is due in large part to the fading of the magic glow of desire.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“She would rather light a candle than curse the darkness, and her glow has warmed the world.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
