Famous quotes containing the words light and/or beams:
“Once a happy old man
One can never change the core of things, and light burns you the harder for it.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“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)
