Darker Ages

Famous quotes containing the words darker and/or ages:

    But things get darker as we move
    To ask them: Whom must we get to know
    To die, so you live and we know?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    I’m 65 and I guess that puts me in with the geriatrics. But if there were fifteen months in every year, I’d only be 48. That’s the trouble with us. We number everything. Take women, for example. I think they deserve to have more than twelve years between the ages of 28 and 40.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)
