Famous quotes containing the words island and/or light:
“Beyond this island bound
By a thin sea of flesh
And a bone coast ...”

“Writing is to descend like a miner to the depths of the mine with a lamp on your forehead, a light whose dubious brightness falsifies everything, whose wick is in permanent danger of explosion, whose blinking illumination in the coal dust exhausts and corrodes your eyes.”
