Dark Link

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or link:

“Beyond all this, the wish to be alone:
However the sky grows dark with invitation-cards....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“This sand seemed to us the connecting link between land and water. It was a kind of water on which you could walk, and you could see the ripple-marks on its surface, produced by the winds, precisely like those at the bottom of a brook or lake. We had read that Mussulmans are permitted by the Koran to perform their ablutions in sand when they cannot get water, a necessary indulgence in Arabia, and we now understand the propriety of this provision.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
