Dark Knight Returns

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

    ... a full notecase,
    Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
    And most often losing the Boat Race ...
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    By a knight of ghosts and shadows
    I summon’d am to a tourney
    Ten leagues beyond the wide world’s end:
    Methinks it is no journey.
    —Unknown. Tom o’ Bedlam’s Song (l. 57–60)

    Pleasure is the rock which most young people split upon; they launch out with crowded sails in quest of it, but without a compass to direct their course, or reason sufficient to steer the vessel; for want of which, pain and shame, instead of pleasure, are the returns of their voyage.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
