Dark Mild

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or mild:

    “Lovers of horses and of women, shall
    From marble of a broken sepulchre
    Or dark betwixt the polecat and the owl,
    Or any rich, dark nothing disinter
    The workman, noble and saint, and all things run
    On that fashionable gyre again.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “And I have seen long fingers that would stare
    With fiery eyes, and then the eyes would crawl
    Deftly across the counterpane and fall
    Soundless, with a wink of mild despair.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
