Famous quotes containing the words ray, lyman and/or wilbur:

    No ray is dimmed, no atom worn,
    My oldest force is good as new,
    And the fresh rose on yonder thorn
    Gives back the bending heavens in dew.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Isn’t it strange some people make
    You feel so tired inside,
    Your thoughts begin to shrivel up
    Like leaves all brown and dried!
    —Rachel Lyman Field (1894–1942)

    Once in his lifetime every artist feels the hand of God and creates something that comes alive.
