Light Pieces

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or pieces:

    But thou beneath the sad and heavy line
    Of death, doth waste all senseless, cold, and dark;
    Where not so much as dreams of light may shine,
    Nor any thought of greenness, leaf, or bark.
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.
    Richard Louv (20th century)
