Black Returned

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or returned:

    O God, oh! of thine only worthy blood,
    And my tears, make a heavenly Lethean flood,
    And drown in it my sins’ black memory.
    That thou remember them, some claim as debt;
    I think it mercy, if thou wilt forget.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    I was used to yearning for you. After you returned my love, I felt unsettled and vaguely aggrieved.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
