Dark Hand

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or hand:

    “—the dark ajar, the rocks breaking with light,
    and undisturbed, unbreathing flame,
    colorless, sparkless, freely fed on straw,
    and, lulled within, a family with pets,
    —and looked and looked our infant sight away.”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    “For, eschewing books and tasks,
    Nature answers all he asks;
    Hand in hand with her he walks;
    Face to face with her he talks,
    Part and parcel of her joy,—
    Blessings on the barefoot boy!”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
