Thick

Famous quotes containing the word thick:

“Come, thick night,
And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark
To cry, “Hold, hold!””
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

cut apart the heat,
rend it to tatters.

Fruit cannot drop
through this thick air—”

“At the thick of the dark
the moment of the cold’s
deepest plunge we brought branches
cut from the green trees

to fill our need,”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
