One candle is enough. Its gentle light will be more suitable, will be more gracious when the Shades arrive, the Shades of Love.

— C.P. Cavafy

Next Quote

It is our duty not to not only hold fast, but to hold forth the Word of life; not only to hold fast for our own benefit, but to hold it forth for the benefit of others, to hold it forth as the candlestick holds forth the candle, which makes it appear to advantage all around, or as the luminaries of the heavens, which shed their influences far and wide.

— Matthew Henry
