Famous quotes containing the words light and/or beams:
“Why do we then shun death with anxious strife?
If Light can thus deceive, wherefore not Life?”

“When Gabriel’s trumpet ends all life’s delay,
Will crash the beams of firmamental woe:
Not nature will sustain the even crime
Of death, though death sustains all nature, so.”
