Dark Blue Base

Famous quotes containing the words dark, blue and/or base:

    Dark, dark my light, and darker my desire
    My soul, like some heat-maddened summer fly,
    Keeps buzzing at the sill.

    I have just come down from my father.
    Higher and higher he lies
    Above me in a blue light
    Shed by a tinted window.
    James Dickey (b. 1923)

    Then must you speak
    Of one the lov’d not wisely but too well;
    Of one not easily jealous, but, being wrought,
    Perplex’d in the extreme; of one whose hand,
    Like the base Indian, threw a pearl away
    Richer than all his tribe;
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
