Famous quotes containing the words light and/or beams:
“For as change is horror,
Virtue is really stubbornness
And only in the light of lost words
Can we imagine our rewards.”

Will crash the beams of firmamental woe:
Not nature will sustain the even crime
Of death, though death sustains all nature, so.”
