Wick Lane

Famous quotes containing the words wick and/or lane:

“There lives within the very flame of love
A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.”
—Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
