Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    “It looked as if
    The shore was lucky in being backed by cliff,
    The cliff in being backed by continent;
    It looked as if a night of dark intent
    Was coming, and not only a night, an age.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Slowly he entered dark and silence and lay there for so long that with what judgement remained he judged them to be final.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    “who should moor at his edge
    And fare on afoot would find gates of no gardens,
    But the hill of dark underfoot diving,
    Closing overhead, the cold deep, and drowning.
    He is called Leviathan, and named for rolling,”
    —William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)
