Dark Age Book

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

    butter fat goosegirls, bounced in a gambo bed,
    Their breasts full of honey, under their gander king
    Trounced by his wings in the hissing shippen, long dead
    And gone that barley dark where their clogs danced in the spring....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    But an old age serene and bright,
    And lovely as a Lapland night,
    Shall lead thee to thy grave.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Hardly a book of human worth, be it heaven’s own secret, is honestly placed before the reader; it is either shunned, given a Periclean funeral oration in a hundred and fifty words, or interred in the potter’s field of the newspapers’ back pages.
    Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
