Famous quotes containing the word accident:

    Thus he struggled, by every method, to keep his light shining before men. Surely the lighthouse-keeper has a responsible, if an easy, office. When his lamp goes out, he goes out; or, at most, only one such accident is pardoned.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
