When Thomas Edison worked late into the night on the electric light he had to do it by gas lamp or candle. I'm sure it made the work seem that much more urgent.

To light one candle to God and another to the Devil is the principle of wisdom.

Do you realize if it weren't for Edison we'd be watching TV by candlelight?

Religion is a candle inside a multicolored lantern. Everyone looks through a particular color but the candle is always there.

I lived by the candlelight for two years because I couldn't afford power. It was nice and romantic at the time but if you can't afford power you're pretty broke. You endure it.

I love to be in my bathroom with my candles lit morning noon and night. I like taking hot baths and hot showers using my body scrubs and lotions.

To enlarge or illustrate this power and effect of love is to set a candle in the sun.

Just as a candle cannot burn without fire men cannot live without a spiritual life.

Curiosity is the wick in the candle of learning.

Imparting knowledge is only lighting other men's candles at our lamp without depriving ourselves of any flame.
