Famous quotes containing the words black and/or ink:
“Thus while I sit and sigh the day
With all his borrow’d lights away,
Till night’s black wings do overtake me,
Thinking on thee, thy beauties then,
As sudden lights do sleepy men,
So they by their bright rays awake me.”
—Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)
“Traveling takes the ink out of one’s pen as well as the cash out of one’s purse.”
