Typical Dark Sky

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

    A building is akin to dogma; it is insolent, like dogma. Whether or no it is permanent, it claims permanence, like a dogma. People ask why we have no typical architecture of the modern world, like impressionism in painting. Surely it is obviously because we have not enough dogmas; we cannot bear to see anything in the sky that is solid and enduring, anything in the sky that does not change like the clouds of the sky.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    ... a full notecase,
    Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
    And most often losing the Boat Race ...
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    I turn my head to sky rains falling,
    wash the wounds of numbness from my soul.
    Turn my heart in tides of fierce renewal,
    where love and rage run whole.
    Come drink deep.
    Carolyn McDade (20th century)
