Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or continent:
“My beautiful, my beautiful! That standest meekly by,
With thy proudly-arched and glossy neck, and dark and fiery eye!”
—Caroline Sheridan Norton (1808–1877)
“Beyond the horizon, or even the knowledge, of the cities along the coast, a great, creative impulse is at work—the only thing, after all, that gives this continent meaning and a guarantee of the future. Every Australian ought to climb up here, once in a way, and glimpse the various, manifold life of which he is a part.”
—Vance Palmer (1885–1959)
