From my friend in Iran:
Sue,
Thoreau said, "The sun is but a morning star." But that is for people who can see the sun. For those who are left in darkness like Pasternak, a candle is the revelation of all the stars that burn in all the galaxies of the whole universe. In a candle we find our dreams. In its flickering light fly our dreams to the places which are not "here", to somewhere else other than here.
