Burning Daylight

Famous quotes containing the words burning and/or daylight:

    At my nativity
    The front of heaven was full of fiery shapes
    Of burning cressets, and at my birth
    The frame and huge foundation of the earth
    Shaked like a coward.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Mirth is like a flash of lightning, that breaks through a gloom of clouds, and glitters for a moment; cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, and fills it with a steady and perpetual serenity.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
