If we think about it, a lighthouse is a much more rare sight than a tiger, windmill, identical twins or a person with an extra thumb but there is so much that we can learn from this lifeless structure. So today we have brought the most beautiful lighthouse quotes and sayings that will inspire you to shine bright like a lighthouse, guiding and inspiring everyone around you through your deeds and will.
We might not have seen a lighthouse, but thanks to some movies and cartoons and anime shows, whenever we hear its name, an aesthetically pleasing picture hits our mind, a tall tower, standing on rocks beside the ocean, surrounded by lush greenery and towered by blue and beautiful ocean-sky, guiding ships and people and even marine life. And other times, the image is of an abandoned tower, standing tall with gray hues and with even grayish surroundings, giving chills, mostly haunted but still standing tall and holding its ground, amidst all the negativity.
So be like a lighthouse, strong, guiding and standing there like a mountain. And to help you learn something from this lifeless structure that has more personality then many, we have brought these lighthouse quotes and sayings that will inspire and motivate you, so take a look:
