Black Lantern Corps - Oath

Oath

As with the other Lantern Corps, Black Hand devised an oath for the Black Lanterns:

The Blackest Night falls from the skies,
The darkness grows as all light dies,
We crave your hearts and your demise,
By my black hand, the dead shall rise!

—Black Lantern Corps Oath

Famous quotes containing the word oath:

    On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Friendship is by its very nature freer of deceit than any other relationship we can know because it is the bond least affected by striving for power, physical pleasure, or material profit, most liberated from any oath of duty or of constancy.
    Francine Du Plesssix Gray (20th century)

    The oath of a lover is no stronger than the word of a
    tapster; they are both the confirmer of false reckonings.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
