Extinguishes Quotes
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Absence is to love what wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small, it enkindles the great.
Roger de Rabutin

Much reading is an oppression of the mind, and extinguishes the natural candle, which is the reason of so many senseless scholars in the world.
William Penn
