Night Long

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or long:

    That night your great guns, unawares,
    Shook all our coffins as we lay,
    And broke the chancel window-squares,
    We thought it was the Judgment-day
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    And I have seen long fingers that would stare
    With fiery eyes, and then the eyes would crawl
    Deftly across the counterpane and fall
    Soundless, with a wink of mild despair.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
