Night Master

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or master:

    “Because of something told under the famished horn
    Of the hunter’s moon, that hung between the night and the day,
    To dream of women whose beauty was folded in dismay,
    Even in an old story, is a burden not to be borne.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “A penniless man who has no ties to bind him is master of himself at any rate, but a luckless wretch who is in love no longer belongs to himself, and may not take his own life. Love makes us almost sacred in our own eyes; it is the life of another that we revere within us; then and so begins for us the cruelest trouble of all.”
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
