“For as the eyes of bats are to the blaze of day, so is the reason in our soul to the things which are by nature most evident of all.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
“Let us have a good many maples and hickories and scarlet oaks, then, I say. Blaze away! Shall that dirty roll of bunting in the gun-house be all the colors a village can display? A village is not complete, unless it have these trees to mark the season in it. They are important, like the town clock. A village that has them not will not be found to work well. It has a screw loose, an essential part is wanting.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Oh! how many actions, how many fabulous exploits remain without glory in the midst of the night.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
