Famous quotes containing the word candle:

    “Lost at night in an immense forest, I only have a small light to guide me. A man appears who tells me: “My friend, blow out your candle in order to find your way.” This man is a theologian.
    The sea, fluid garden filled with animals and plants.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
