Lamp Appears

Famous quotes containing the words lamp and/or appears:

    The lamp of war is kindled here, not to be extinguished but by torrents of blood.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    There is a vague popular belief that lawyers are necessarily dishonest. I say vague, because when we consider to what extent confidence and honors are reposed in and conferred upon lawyers by the people, it appears improbable that their impression of dishonesty is very distinct and vivid. Yet the impression is common, almost universal.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
