Famous quotes containing the word darkness:

    Lo! thy dread empire, Chaos! is restor’d;
    Light dies before thy uncreating word:
    Thy hand, great Anarch! lets the curtain fall;
    And universal darkness buries all.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    to these
    Hale dead and deathless do the women of the hill
    Love for ever meridian through the courters’ trees
    And the daughters of darkness flame like Fawkes fires still.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    in darkness and in hedges
    I sang my sour tone
    and all my love was howling
    conspicuously alone.
    William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)
