Dark Hand

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or hand:

    A shadow
    not of a bird, not of a cloud,
    draws a dark stroke over
    the hills, the mind.
    And another, another.
    Our fears keep pace with us.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    ... A La Recherche du Temps Perdu is like a beautiful hand with long fingers reaching out to pluck a perfect fruit, without error, for the accurate eye knows well it is growing just there on the branch, while Ulysses is the fumbling of a horned hand in darkness after a doubted jewel.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
