Looking for a quote

[shortguy]

I'm looking for a quote from the eve of World War I, spoken (I believe) by PM Asquith or someone in his cabinet. It was very foreboding, and I think it had to do with candles or lights or something. Doe this ring any bells for anyone?

Sir Edward Grey, it was:

"The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime."

Oh! That's it!

Thanks!
