Dark Night

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or night:

    “It looked as if
    The shore was lucky in being backed by cliff,
    The cliff in being backed by continent;
    It looked as if a night of dark intent
    Was coming, and not only a night, an age.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “What is the good of a man and he
    Alone and alone, with a speckled shin?
    I would that I drank with my love on my knee,
    Between two barrels at the inn.
    Oro, oro!
    To-morrow night I will break down the door.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
