Dark Spiral

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or spiral:

    “At last the gathered show lets down as white
    As may be in dark woods, and with a song
    It shall not make again all winter long
    Of hissing on the yet uncovered ground,”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Year after year beheld the silent toil
    That spread his lustrous coil;
    Still as the spiral grew,
    He left the past year’s dwelling for the new,
    Stole with soft step its shining archway through,
    Built up its idle door,
    Stretched in his last-found home, and knew the old no more.”
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
