Famous quotes containing the words light and/or scattered:
“Why do we then shun death with anxious strife?
If Light can thus deceive, wherefore not Life?”
—Joseph Blanco White (1775–1841)
“Thou blind man’s mark, thou fool’s self-chosen snare,
Fond Fancy’s scum and dregs of scattered thought,
Band of all evils, cradle of causeless care,
Thou web of will whose end is never wrought;
Desire! desire, I have too dearly bought
With price of mangled mind thy worthless ware;”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
