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)

    Nine-tenths of English poetic literature is the result either of vulgar careerism or of a poet trying to keep his hand in. Most poets are dead by their late twenties.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
