Oil Lamps

Famous quotes containing the words oil and/or lamps:

    Mr. Chadband is a large yellow man, with a fat smile, and a general appearance of having a good deal of train oil in his system.

    And though thou notest from thy safe recess
    Old friends burn dim, like lamps in noisome air
    Love them for what they are; nor love them less,
    Because to thee they are not what they were.
