Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    Lord, I fashion dark gods, too,
    Daring even to give You
    Dark despairing features
    Countee Cullen (1903–1946)

    she drew back a while,
    Then, yielding to the irresistible joy,
    With frantic gesture and short breathless cry
    Folded his frame in her dissolving arms.
    Now blackness veiled his dizzy eyes, and night
    Involved and swallowed up the vision; sleep,
    Like a dark flood suspended in its course,
    Rolled back its impulse on his vacant brain.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    Through the dark cold and the empty desolation,
    The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters
    Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
