Rays

Famous quotes containing the word rays:

    “Beneath the sun’s rays our shadow is our comrade;
    When clouds obscure the sun our shadow flees.
    So Fortune’s smiles the fickle crowd pursues,
    But swift is gone whenever she veils her face.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “The rays which stream through the shutter will be no longer remembered when the shutter is wholly removed.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
