Typical Dark Sky

Famous quotes containing the words typical, dark and/or sky:

    The books may say that nine-month-olds crawl, say their first words, and are afraid of strangers. Your exuberantly concrete and special nine-month-old hasn’t read them. She may be walking already, not saying a word and smiling gleefully at every stranger she sees. . . . You can support her best by helping her learn what she’s trying to learn, not what the books say a typical child ought to be learning.
    Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)

    Life is the lust of a lamp for the light that is dark till the dawn
    of the day when we die.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.
    William Gibson (b. 1948)
