Help please.

We are trying to sort out a thanksgiving Service for a favourite Aunt and there are two quotations she wanted to include but because the writing is bad and the ink smudged we can't deciper them,
One says" We owe it to the dead....not to let ourselves be crushed and saddened. We must not be broken, not weakened or less resoloute. To fight to the end what is truly The Battle of Life."
The other is less easy to decipher but something like
"Don't worry about not extinguishing the light but pulling the lamps because ???? has come"
Any help to complete, clarify and attribute these quotations would be much appreciated.
Many thanks

The second one could be this one.... Death is not extinguishing the light; it is putting out the lamp because dawn has come. by
Rabindranath Tagore

Closest to second one:

Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
- Rabindranath Tagore

The first one sounds a bit like something Churchill would have said.

The Battle of Life was the name of a book by Charles Dickens.

Thanks, Lankeela, I hadn't thought of Churchill but had found the Dickens. Will see if I can find it on a Churchillian page.
