Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    Since the war nothing is so really frightening not the dark not alone in a room or anything on a road or a dog or a moon but two things, yes, indigestion and high places they are frightening.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    ethereal, their mauve
    almost a transparent gray,
    their dark veins
    bruise-blue.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    butter fat goosegirls, bounced in a gambo bed,
    Their breasts full of honey, under their gander king
    Trounced by his wings in the hissing shippen, long dead
    And gone that barley dark where their clogs danced in the spring....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
