Dark Spiral

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or spiral:

    You are disdainful and magnificent—
    Your perfect body and your pompous gait,
    Your dark eyes flashing solemnly with hate,
    Helene Johnson (b. 1907)

    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)
