Charles Caleb Colton Sun Quotations

Mystery magnifies danger as the fog the sun.

Despotism can no more exist in a nation until the liberty of the press be destroyed than the night can happen before the sun is set.

Unlike the sun, intellectual luminaries shine brightest after they set.

Happiness is that single and glorious thing which is the very light and sun of the whole animated universe; and where she is not it were better that nothing should be.

Pleasure is to women what the sun is to the flower; if moderately enjoyed, it beautifies, it refreshes, and it improves; if immoderately, it withers, deteriorates and destroys.
