Midnight Man

Famous quotes containing the words midnight and/or man:

    Where have you gone? The tide is over you,
    The turn of midnight water’s over you,
    As Time is over you, and mystery,
    And memory, the flood that does not flow.
    Kenneth Slessor (1901–1971)

    It becomes the moralist, too, to inquire what man might do to improve and beautify the system; what to make the stars shine more brightly, the sun more cheery and joyous, the moon more placid and content.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
