Famous quotes containing the words return to, return, dark, side and/or moon:

    Return to her? and fifty men dismissed?
    No, rather I abjure all roofs, and choose
    To wage against the enmity o’ th’ air,
    To be a comrade with the wolf and owl—
    Necessity’s sharp pinch.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Adolescence is a time when children are supposed to move away from parents who are holding firm and protective behind them. When the parents disconnect, the children have no base to move away from or return to. They aren’t ready to face the world alone. With divorce, adolescents feel abandoned, and they are outraged at that abandonment. They are angry at both parents for letting them down. Often they feel that their parents broke the rules and so now they can too.
    Mary Pipher (20th century)

    I remember meeting you in a dark dream
    Of April, you or some girl,
    The necklace of wishes alive and breathing around your throat.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    As soon as by one’s own propaganda even a glimpse of right on the other side is admitted, the cause for doubting one’s own right is laid.
    Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

    It becomes the moralist, too, to inquire what man might do to improve and beautify the system; what to make the stars shine more brightly, the sun more cheery and joyous, the moon more placid and content.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
