Famous quotes containing the word darkness:

    “It is the sea that whitens the roof.
    The sea drifts through the winter air.
    It is the sea that the north wind makes.
    The sea is in the falling snow.
    This gloom is the darkness of the sea.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
    Check’ring the eastern clouds with streaks of light,
    And fleckled darkness like a drunkard reels
    From forth day’s path and Titan’s fiery wheels.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I say there is no darkness but ignorance.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
