Famous quotes containing the words light and/or beams:
“Dark is my day whiles her fair light I miss,
And dead my life, that wants such lively bliss.”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
“Give me the splendid silent sun
with all his beams full-dazzling,
Give me juicy autumnal fruit ripe and red from the orchard,
Give me a field where the unmow’d grass grows,
Give me an arbor, give me the trellis’d grape,
Give me fresh corn and wheat, give me serene-moving animals teaching content,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
