Famous quotes containing the words lamp and/or appears:

    ... people were so ridiculous with their illusions, carrying their fools’ caps unawares, thinking their own lies opaque while everybody else’s were transparent, making themselves exceptions to everything, as if when all the world looked yellow under a lamp they alone were rosy.

    Never have anything to do with the near surviving representatives of anyone whose name appears in the death column of the Times as having “passed away.”
