Dark Alliance

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or alliance:

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

    Ah! how much a mother learns from her child! The constant protection of a helpless being forces us to so strict an alliance with virtue, that a woman never shows to full advantage except as a mother. Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all life’s duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
