Famous quotes containing the words dark, age and/or book:
“The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Old age, calm, expanded, broad with the haughty breadth of the universe,
Old age flowing free with the delicious near-by freedom of death.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“A book is quite a beautiful thing, even more so learning. Together, however, all they amount to is called book-learning.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
