Night Vigil

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or vigil:

“by night only crazy things
like the full moon and the whippoorwill

and us, are busy.”
—Charles Olson (1910–1970)

“This day is called the Feast of Crispian.
He that outlives this day and comes safe home
Will stand a-tiptoe when this day is nam’d
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours
And say, “Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.””
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
