Long Sun

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or sun:

    My life has crept so long on a broken wing
    Through cells of madness, haunts of horror and fear,
    That I come to be grateful at last for a little thing.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    He certainly must be a son of Aurora to whom the sun looms, when there are so many millions to whom it glooms rather, or who will never see it till an hour after it has risen. But it behooves us old stagers to keep our lamps trimmed and burning to the last, and not trust to the sun’s looming.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
