Famous quotes containing the words candle and/or wax:
“The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head—no intricate game of chess where few moves are made in straight-forwardness and ends are attained by indirection, an oblique, tedious, barren game hardly worth that poor candle burnt out in playing it.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“Colloquial poetry is to the real art as the barber’s wax dummy is to sculpture.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
