Black Camelot

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or camelot:

    “My black sun, my
    Odessa sunflower,
    spurs of Tartar gold
    ring at your ankles,
    you stand taller before me than the ten
    towers of Jerusalem.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “Ask every person if he’s heard the story,
    And tell it strong and clear if he has not,
    That once there was a fleeting wisp of glory
    Called Camelot ...
    Don’t let it be forgot
    That once there was a spot
    For one brief shining moment that was known
    As Camelot.”
    —Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
