Night Games

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or games:

“Why must it always end this way?
A dais with woman reading, with the ruckus of her hair
And all that is unsaid about her pulling us back to her, with her
Into the silence that night alone can’t explain.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.”
