Light Show

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or show:

“A lover may bestride the gossamers
That idles in the wanton summer air,
And yet not fall; so light is vanity.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“I am obliged to confess that I do not regard the abolition of slavery as a means of warding off the struggle of the two races in the Southern states. The Negroes may long remain slaves without complaining; but if they are once raised to the level of freemen, they will soon revolt at being deprived of almost all their civil rights; and as they cannot become the equals of the whites, they will speedily show themselves as enemies.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
