Light Scattered

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or scattered:

“The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.”

“Across the lonely beach we flit,
One little sandpiper and I;
And fast I gather, bit by bit,
The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
The wild waves reach their hands for it,
The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
As up and down the beach we flit—
One little sandpiper and I.”
—Celia Thaxter (”Laighton”)
