Famous quotes containing the words light and/or pattern:
“Smokers, male and female, inject and excuse idleness in their lives every time they light a cigarette.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
“It is a very true and expressive phrase, “He looked daggers at me,” for the first pattern and prototype of all daggers must have been a glance of the eye.... It is wonderful how we get about the streets without being wounded by these delicate and glancing weapons, a man can so nimbly whip out his rapier, or without being noticed carry it unsheathed. Yet it is rare that one gets seriously looked at.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
