Dark Age Book

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

    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)

    It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life’s parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. ... Death does away with time.
    Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

    A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading it.
    William Styron (b. 1925)
