Pale Moonlight

Famous quotes containing the words pale and/or moonlight:

    “Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
    And thus the native hue of resolution
    Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought,
    And enterprises of great pith and moment
    With this regard their currents turn awry,
    And lose the name of action.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The poet who walks by moonlight is conscious of a tide in his thought which is to be referred to lunar influence.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
