Dark Age Book

Famous quotes containing the words dark, age and/or book:

    Why look in the dark for light?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When winter snows upon thy sable hairs,
    And frost of age hath nipped thy beauties near;
    When dark shall seem thy day that never clears,
    And all lies withered that was held so dear,
    Then take this picture which I here present thee,
    Limned with a pencil not all unworthy;
    Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    Some hard and dry book in a dead language, which you have found it impossible to read at home, but for which you still have a lingering regard, is the best to carry with you on a journey.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
