Quotes by Light Colinialism hardly ever exploits the whole of a country. It contents itself with bringing to light the natrual resources, which it extracts, and exports to meet the needs of the mother country's industries, thereby allowing certain sectors of the colony to become relatively rich. But the rest of the colony follows its path of under-development and poverty, or at all events sinks into it more deeply. Frantz Fanon lightmothercountry We must not always try to plumb the depths of the human heart; the truths it contains are among those that are best seen in half-light or in perspective. François-René de Chateaubriand perspectivelightheart Photography concentrates one's eye on the superficial. For that reason it obscures the hidden life which glimmers through the outlines of things like a play of light and shade. One can't catch that even with the sharpest lens. Franz Kafka lighteyephotography As soon as a true thought has entered our mind, it gives a light which makes us see a crowd of other objects which we have never perceived before. François-René de Chateaubriand lightgivingknowledge Fame is like a river, that beareth up things light and swollen, and drowns things weighty and solid. Francis Bacon lightfamerivers Weedly-weedly-wee, make a face, hold your guitar like it's your weenie, point it heavenward, and look like you're really doing something. Then, you get a big ovation while the smoke bombs go off, and the motorized lights in your truss twirl around. Frank Zappa ovationguitarlight There was never miracle wrought by God to convert an atheist, because the light of nature might have led him to confess a God. Francis Bacon naturelightatheist Too many commercials. Too many lies. Too many celebrities. I don't recognize. Too many brand names. Too many magazines. I got so much sensation, I can't feel a thing. Simple. Living. Got to get to simple - living. Simple living. Simple... simply living. Fred Small lightsimplelying All knowledge, the totality of all questions and all answers, is contained in the dog. If one could but realize this knowledge, if one could but bring it into the light of day, if we dogs would but own that we know infinitely more than we admit to ourselves! Franz Kafka lightdoganswers Our work on light bulbs wasn't an arbitrary mandate. We didn't just pick a standard out of the air, or look for a catchy sounding standard like 25 by 2025 not based in science or feasibility. Instead, we worked with both industry and environmental groups to come up with a standard that made sense and was doable. Fred Upton environmentallightair All I know to do is to light the candle that has been given to me. Fred Rogers life-and-lovegivenlight Some months ago we discovered that certain light elements emit positrons under the action of alpha particles. Our latest experiments have shown a very striking fact: when an aluminium foil is irradiated on a polonium preparation [alpha ray emitter], the emission of positrons does not cease immediately when the active preparation is removed: the foil remains radioactive and the emission of radiation decays exponentially as for an ordinary radio-element. We observed the same phenomenon with boron and magnesium. Frederic Joliot-Curie preparationlightscience The human understanding is no dry light, but receives an infusion from the will and affections... What a man had rather were true he more readily believes. Francis Bacon lightmenbelieve God's presence is not just Light, and Life, but Love. And Love invites, but does not compel. Frederica Mathewes-Green and-lovelightdoe I haven't felt the excitement of listening to as well as creating music along with reading and writing for too many years now. I feel guilty beyond words about these things. For example, when we're backstage and the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowds begins, it doesn't affect me the way in which it did for Freddy [sic] Mercury who seemed to love, relish in the love and adoration from the crowd, which is something I totally admire and envy. Freddie Mercury lightreadingwriting The generality of men have, like plants, latent properties, which chance brings to light. Francois de La Rochefoucauld chancelightmen The Light of the world is not put out. Now have death and the grave been converted into the great testimonies for life and immortality. Now may each man, who has the sentence of Adam upon him, know that he is a kinsman of the Son of God. Now may he follow Him; and so, when the darkness is thickest around him and within, not walk in it, but see the Light of Life. Frederick Denison Maurice lightmenson The clearsighted eye turns the light back to see its own Original Nature. Frederick Franck turnslighteye For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. The feeling in the nation must be quickened, the conscience of the nation must be roused, the propriety of the nation must be startled, the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed: and its crimes against God and man must be denounced. Frederick Douglass lightfiremen Our art is a way of being dazzled by truth: the light on the grotesquely grimacing retreating face is true, and nothing else.
