"The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long. And you have burned so very, very brightly.."

It's originally from the movie Blade Runner. To my knowledge it does not appear in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, the book on which the movie was based.

"Blade Runner, directed by Ridley Scott, original screenplay written by Hampton Fancher, based on the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick, rewritten by David Peoples and released in 1982."

Lao Tzu or Laozi was a philosopher of ancient China in the 6th century BC best known as the author of Tao Te Ching, and the founder of philosophical Taoism.
