Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    No matter how deep and dark your pit, how dank your shroud,
    Their heads are heroically unbloody and unbowed.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    We do not fear censorship for we have no wish to offend with improprieties or obscenities, but we do demand, as a right, the liberty to show the dark side of wrong, that we may illuminate the bright side of virtue—the same liberty that is conceded to the art of the written word, that art to which we owe the Bible and the works of Shakespeare.
    —D.W. (David Wark)

    Dark, dark my light, and darker my desire
    My soul, like some heat-maddened summer fly,
    Keeps buzzing at the sill.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
