Dark Hand

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or hand:

    O conspiracy,
    Sham’st thou to show thy dang’rous brow by night,
    When evils are most free? O then, by day
    Where wilt thou find a cavern dark enough
    To mask thy monstrous visage?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    So long as you write what you wish to write, that is all that matters; and whether it matters for ages or only for hours, nobody can say. But to sacrifice a hair of the head of your vision, a shade of its colour, in deference to some Headmaster with a silver pot in his hand or to some professor with a measuring-rod up his sleeve, is the most abject treachery, and the sacrifice or wealth and chastity, which used to be said to be the greatest of human disasters, a mere flea-bite in comparison.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
