Dark

Famous quotes containing the word dark:

    Better to die, or not to have been born,
    than hear that plaining, piteous convict wail
    about these beautiful dark eyebrowed women.
    It’s soldiers who sing these days. O Lord God.
    Marina Tsvetaeva (1892–1941)

    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)

    The elaborate star-light throws a reflection
    On the dark stream,
    Till all the eddies gleam;
    And thereupon there comes that scream
    From terrified, invisible beast or bird:
    Image of poignant recollection.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
