Dark Spiral

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or spiral:

“The sea
takes on that desperate tone
of dark that wives put on
when all their love is done.”

“What is art,
But life upon the larger scale, the higher,
When, graduating up in a spiral line
Of still expanding and ascending gyres,
It pushes toward the intense significance
Of all things, hungry for the Infinite?
Art’s life,—and where we live, we suffer and toil.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
