Dark Ocean

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or ocean:

    “The sea
    takes on that desperate tone
    of dark that wives put on
    when all their love is done.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “And such the trust that still were mine,
    Though stormy winds swept o’er the brine,
    Or though the tempest’s fiery breath
    Roused me from sleep to wreck and death.
    In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
    The germ of immortality!
    And calm and peaceful shall I sleep,
    Rocked in the cradle of the deep.”
    —Emma Hart Willard (1787–1870)
