Dark Knight Returns

Famous quotes containing the words dark, knight and/or returns:

    A shadow
    not of a bird, not of a cloud,
    draws a dark stroke over
    the hills, the mind.
    And another, another.
    Our fears keep pace with us.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Nae living man I’ll love again,
    Since that my lovely knight is slain.
    Wi ae lock of his yellow hair
    I’ll chain my heart for evermair.
    —Unknown. The Lament of the Border Widow (l. 25–28)

    The insolence of base minds in success is boundless; and would scarce admit of a comparison, did not they themselves furnish us with one in the degrees of their abjection when evil returns upon them.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
