Famous quotes containing the words black and/or armour:
“I wake and feel the fell of dark, not day.
What hours, O what black hours we have spent
This night!”

The Fenian horses; armour torn asunder;
Laughter and cries. The armies clash and shock,
And now the daylight-darkening ravens flock.
Cease, cease, O mournful, laughing Fenian horn!”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
