Lamp Life

Famous quotes containing the words lamp and/or life:

    How can they know
    Truth flourishes where the student’s lamp has shone,
    And there alone, that have no solitude?
    So the crowd come they care not what may come.
    They have loud music, hope every day renewed
    And heartier loves; that lamp is from the tomb.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    They think how one life hums, revolves and toils,
    One cog in a golden singing hive:
