Dark Spiral

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or spiral:

    “And a dark shift within the bone
    Brings him the end he could not find.”

    “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)
