Night Vigil

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or vigil:

    The mystery of the evening-star brilliant in silence and distance between the downward-surging plunge of the sun and the vast, hollow seething of inpouring night. The magnificence of the watchful morning-star, that watches between the night and the day, the gleaming clue to the two opposites.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    He that shall see this day and live old age
    Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbors
    And say, “Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
