Nature made the day for exercise, work and seeing to one's business and ... it provides us with a candle, which is to say the bright and joyous light of the sun.
Francois Rabelais
Image
When we trust ourselves, ascents become descents, difficulties turn into easinesses, rocks transform into sands and swords into melting candles!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
You cannot keep up a nightlife and amount to anything in the day. You cannot indulge in those foods and liquors that destroy the physique and still hope to have a physique that functions with the minimum of destruction to itself. A candle burnt at both ends may shed a brighter light, but the darkness that follows is for a longer time.
Coco Chanel

Handsome enough' is this Grim Reaper, Who can snuff all these 'brief candles,' every fluttering soul sucking the air, from this hall -The Vampire Lestat
Anne Rice

That which once was, will be no more. Yesterday will never come again. To-day is passing, and will not return. You may work while it is day but when you have lost that day, it will not return for you to work in. While your candle burns, you may make use of its light, but when it is done, it is too late to use it.
Richard Baxter

I was the only kid at Camp Don Bosco who would admit he was an alter boy back home, so I served two masses a day all summer. But I loved the cassock and surplice, ringing the bells, lighting the candles - it was like being a glamrock roadie for God.

It's like a woman's birthright to knit. It's primal. It's timeless. You don't need electricity to knit. You can do it with a candle, girls!
Tracey Ullman

How far that little candle throws its beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world.
William Shakespeare
Image
It is a poor sport that is not worth a candle.
George Herbert

Commonsense is the wick of the candle.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Everybody is a candle, true. But not everybody is lit.
Harbhajan Singh
Image
To truly be of service to others, we must first serve the server. The ability to bring an enlightened presence to those in need is the ability to light a candle without burning ourselves out.
Bill Crawford
Image
When was the last time you spent a quiet moment just doing nothing - just sitting and looking at the sea, or watching the wind blowing the tree limbs, or waves rippling on a pond, a flickering candle or children playing in the park?
Ralph Marston
Image
To say that you can love one person all your life is just like saying that one candle will continue burning as long as you live.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
All I know to do is to light the candle that has been given to me.
Fred Rogers
Image
Now we have lit a candle to the power Of atoms now we know we're heirs of light Itself.
Philip Jose Farmer
Image
It's time to blow out the candles on the pity party cake.
Louie Giglio

By lighting a candle, you affirm that you are opening a sacred space.
Robert Moss

Wish on everything. Pink cars are good, especially old ones. And stars of course, first stars and shooting stars. Planes will do if they are the first light in the sky and look like stars. Wish in tunnels, holding your breath and lifting your feet off the ground. Birthday candles. Baby teeth.
Francesca Lia Block
Image
And then the searchlight which had been turned on the world was turned off again and never for one moment since has there been any light that's stronger than this-kitchen-candle.
Tennessee Williams
Image
Wishing, like sipping a glass of punch, or pulling aside a bearskin rug in order to access a hidden trapdoor in the floor, is merely a quiet way to spend one's time before the candles are extinguished on one's birthday cake.
Daniel Handler
Image
Money, of course, is still needed to survive, but time is what you need to live. So, save what little money you possess to meet basic survival requirements, but spend your time lavishly in order to create the life values that make the fire worth the candle. Dig?
Rolf Potts
Image
I love having candles, especially when you get downtime. I could just pass out seeing the flame flicker with the lights off.
Kellan Lutz
Image
The menu should be part of the entertainment, part of the dining experience. It's kind of like reading the 'Playbill' when you go to the theater. It should be an alluring and interactive document. Does it have burn marks on it from the candle? If you ever get a greasy menu with food stains on it, it's time to run like hell.
