Dark Night

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or night:

    “They have slapped into the American mind more human misinformation in one evening than the Dark Ages could muster in a decade.”
    —Ben Hecht (1893–1964)

    “After that came commencement day—that great day for which all other days were made. And it went. And that night I felt of myself all over, and to my astonishment, I found ‘twas the same old Rud. Not a single cubit added to my stature; not a hair’s breadth to my girth. If anything, on the contrary, I felt more lank and gaunt than common, much as if a load were off my stomach.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
