Dark Hand

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or hand:

    “butter fat goosegirls, bounced in a gambo bed,
    Their breasts full of honey, under their gander king
    Trounced by his wings in the hissing shippen, long dead
    And gone that barley dark where their clogs danced in the spring....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “The glories of our blood and state
    Are shadows, not substantial things;
    There is no armour against fate;
    Death lays his icy hand on kings:
    Sceptre and crown
    Must tumble down,
    And in the dust be equal made
    With the poor crooked scythe and spade.”
    —James Shirley (1596–1666)
