Black Beard

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or beard:

“In night when colours all to black are cast,
Distinction lost, or gone down with the light;
The eye—a watch to inward senses placed,
Not seeing, yet still having power of sight—
Gives vain alarums to the inward sense”
—Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

“There is always a period when a man with a beard shaves it off. This period does not last. He returns headlong to his beard.”
