Candle Quotes

by

Here are a few fun quotes on candles I found to share with you. Enjoy.

“Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.”
Chinese Proverb

Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it onto future generations.” George Bernard Shaw

“Don’t tell me I’m burning the candle at both ends,
tell me where to get more wax.” Unknown

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle,
and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases
by being shared. Buddha

How far that little candle throws its beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world. William Shakespeare

Nobody will deny that the art of making candles, by which light is continued to us beyond the time that the sun gives us light, is a valuable art, and ought to be preserved. Samuel Johnson
