Virtue could see to do what Virtue would by her own radiant light, though sun and moon where in the flat sea sunk.
John Milton, English Poet (1608-1674)
The stars, that nature hung in heaven, and filled their lamps with everlasting oil, give due light to the misled and lonely traveller.
John Milton, English Poet (1608-1674)
He that has light within his own clear breast May sit in the centre, and enjoy bright day: But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts Benighted walks under the mid-day sun; Himself his own dungeon.
John Milton, English Poet (1608-1674)
Confusion heard his voice, and wild uproar Stood ruled, stood vast infinitude confined; Till at his second bidding darkness fled, Light shone, and order from disorder sprung.
John Milton, English Poet (1608-1674)
By the way, it was his simulations that helped out in Jurassic Park - without them, there would have been only a few dinosaurs. Based on his techniques, Industrial Light and Magic could make whole herds of dinosaurs race across the screen.
Marvin Minsky, American Scientist (1927-  )
My father taught me to paint when I was young with watercolors and so I learned at a very young age the essential elements of the value of light and composition.

I'd be interested in finding out if there is a light you walk into, and if you do meet people from your life and walk hand in hand with Jesus. I would hate for my death to be tragic: I'd like to be old when it happens. But hopefully a young death is unlikely.
Brian Molko, Belgian Musician (1972-  )
The confidence in another man's virtue is no light evidence of a man's own, and God willingly favors such a confidence.
Michel de Montaigne, French Philosopher (1533-1592)
Confidence in others' honesty is no light testimony of one's own integrity.
Michel de Montaigne, French Philosopher (1533-1592)
Happiness, for you we walk on a knife edge. To the eyes you are a flickering light, to the feet, thin ice that cracks; and so may no one touch you who loves you.
Eugenio Montale, Italian Poet (1896-1981)
We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.
Dwight L. Moody, American Clergyman (1837-1899)
Genius without religion is only a lamp on the outer gate of a palace; it may serve to cast a gleam of light on those that are without, while the inhabitant sits in darkness.
Hannah More, English Writer (1745-1833)
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Thomas More, English Author (1478-1535)
The light, that lies In woman's eyes, Has been my heart's undoing.
Thomas More, English Author (1478-1535)
A careful driver is one who honks his horn when he goes through a red light.
Henry Morgan, Welsh Criminal
Each sudden gust of light explains itself as flames, but neither they, nor even bombs redoubled on the hills tonight can quite include me in their fear.
Andrew Motion, English Poet (1952-  )
Our shows are packed with laughter and light-hearted songs to lift the listener from their everyday life. We encourage the audience to participate in any way.
Jason Mraz, American Musician (1977-  )
To speak, therefore, of an electric current in the nerves, is to use quite as symbolic an expression as if we compared the action of the nervous principle with light or magnetism.
Johannes P. Muller, German Scientist (1801-1858)
