Famous quotes containing the word dark:
“He said Next time can I bring my friend?
And I thought Does he mean friend?
And I thought Yes he does mean friend.
Which was quite bold in those days.
It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
And they could still put you in prison for it.
And did, dear.”
—Alan Bennett (b. 1934)
