Faster Light

Famous quotes containing the words faster and/or light:

    Unignorant,
    modest and unemotional, and all emotion,
    he has everlasting vigor,
    power to grow,
    though there are few creatures who can make one
    breathe faster and make one erecter.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Long enough I had heard of irrelevant things; now at length I was glad to make acquaintance with the light that dwells in rotten wood. Where is all your knowledge gone to? It evaporates completely, for it has no depth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
