Small Candle

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or candle:

“Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused. Nor can any very large one, for a whole view of it cannot be had at once, and so there will be no unity and completeness.”
—Aristotle (384 B.C.–322 B.C.)

“Snow, snow over the whole land
across all boundaries.
The candle burned on the table,
the candle burned.”
—Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
