Famous quotes containing the words black and/or plays:
“Thee for my recitative,
Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day

Thee in thy panoply, thy measur’d dual throbbing and thy beat
convulsive,
Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
