Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

“While I wrought out these fitful Danaan rhymes,
My heart would brim with dreams about the times
When we bent down above the fading coals
And talked of the dark folk who live in souls
Of passionate men, like bats in the dead trees....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

Go in the bright blaze of Autumn’s equinox.”

Shakes a desolate boy who slits his throat
In the dark of the coffin and sheds dry leaves,”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
