Deep Midnight

Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or midnight:

    It is deep January. The sky is hard.
    The stalks are firmly rooted in ice.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Formerly, when lying awake at midnight in those woods, I had listened to hear some words or syllables of their language, but it chanced that I listened in vain until I heard the cry of the loon. I have heard it occasionally on the ponds of my native town, but there its wildness is not enhanced by the surrounding scenery.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
