Light Reflected

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or reflected:

    “The light is like a spider.
    It crawls over the water.
    It crawls over the edges of the snow.
    It crawls under your eyelids
    And spreads its webs there
    Its two webs.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Before I finally went into winter quarters in November, I used to resort to the north- east side of Walden, which the sun, reflected from the pitch pine woods and the stony shore, made the fireside of the pond; it is so much pleasanter and wholesomer to be warmed by the sun while you can be, than by an artificial fire. I thus warmed myself by the still glowing embers which the summer, like a departed hunter, had left.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
