Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or habits:
“I remember, I remember
The fir trees dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky;
It was a childish ignorance,
But now ‘tis little joy
To know I’m further off from Heaven
Than when I was a boy.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
“Varis Shah says habits don’t die even if we are cut into pieces.”
—Varis Shah (18th cent.)
