Famous quotes containing the words head and/or light:
“I am a lantern
My head a moon
Of Japanese paper, my gold beaten skin
Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.”
—Sylvia Plath (19321963)
“So doth, so is Religion; and this blind-
ness too much light breeds; but unmoved thou
Of force must one, and forcd but one allow;
And the right; ask thy father which is she,
let him ask his; though truth and falsehood be
Near twins, yet truth a little elder is;”
—John Donne (15721631)
