Voltaire lighted a torch and gave to others the sacred flame. The light still shines and will as long as man loves liberty and seeks for truth.
The great poets have sympathized with the people. They have uttered in all ages the human cry. Unbought by gold, unawed by power, they have lifted high the torch that illuminates the world.
A great man is a torch in the darkness, a beacon in superstition's night, an inspiration and a prophecy.
The man who finds a truth lights a torch.
